I have some job prospects in downtown Chicago. Nothing is guaranteed yet -- indeed, far from it! (knocks on desk) -- but I'd like to get my RKBA options clear in my mind before proceeding any further with a job search in that part of the country.
So: What are some nice towns/areas within commuting distance of Chicago that are relatively gun-friendly?
I know you have to get a FOID card to own firearms in IL. I know no handguns are allowed in the City of Chicago and some of the nearby towns, so those places are out. That said, I'd want to live as close to the City as possible, consistent with keeping my guns.
Background: I have a modest collection of handguns, mostly revolvers with one normal-capacity semi-auto pistol (15 round magazine). I don't own any semi-auto centerfire rifles yet, but would probably want to acquire something in the AR-15/AK/SKS line soon.
Thanks in advance to knowledgeable THR Illinoisans.
