Illinois High Capacity Mag & Firearm Ban

[breakingcontact]

Talked to a buddy I served with whos a cop in Illinois now. I asked him what his plan was. He said ignore it.

He'll enforce it. That pension will depend on it.

 

[Cavman]

He'll enforce it. That pension will depend on it.

There are people that refuse to do that.

 

[Andy NWI]

He'll enforce it. That pension will depend on it.

67+ counties in Illinois said they will not enforce this ban. 2A sanctuary counties in Colorado still sell standard capacity mags openly in their gun shops. Their ban has been in effect for 10 years now

This should reduce the crime rate & murders , you know the criminals will follow the law.

 

[Ziggidy]

They can make them in Illinois. They can't sell them in Illinois.

That can play havoc with current owners who live in illinois who need repairs or replacement parts, I would think?

When I moved out of that sesspool three years ago I only moved 14 miles but that was enough. I am still a member of the Westville Illinois Post 51 American Legion where I have been a member of the Honor Guard. I have been reading on an Illinois 2A forum about out of state companies no longer accepting orders for replacement parts for firearms.
We use M-1"s and they do need repair every now and then and I am wondering if this law will hinder us from getting repair parts. The way I read the bill the M-1 is not banned but some companies will probably halt all sales to Illinois. Jim.

Illinois is a lost cause because of the sheeples and wokes and libtards who are so blinded by the Democrats and their anti 2A excrement. End of rant!

Citizens of Illinois and other repressed states are just beginning to rant. Sheriffs of 95 counties out of 102 have publically committed to non enforcement of this repulsive act. Three counties are going to enforce it: Lake, Cook, and Champaign, while four counties have not committed one way or the other. And that fata** governor says he will fire the police who don’t enforce, even though Sheriffs are an elected position. This is just the beginning. My only piece of advice is to not get complacent with your state’s position, no matter where you call home, because it can change rapidly. We must be very proactive and watchful concerning our representatives, and their proposed legislation.
Illinois is telling Prickster, Harmon, Willis and the rest that people have had enough. I think of the line from Glinda the good witch in The Wizard of Oz: “Oh rubbish! You have no power here! Be gone before somebody drops a house on you!”

Will LGS's and big box stores card customers who try to buy large (10 or more) capacity magazines, and refuse to sell to Illinois residents?

You Know someone will try to buy, and then drop a dime on the store.

My Illinois friend could be buying mags to use at my house in Indiana when he comes over and keep the mags at my place. That could explain why a Illinois resident is buying a 20 round mag in Indiana.

Realistically - they shouldn't have to explain anything.

 

[ckyoursix]

The Illinois news stations will try to make an issue out of it.

Crown Point show just got more interesting.

Heh, coincidentally I also moved out 3 years ago, and also moved only 14 miles, crossing the same border as you, just further north. Best decision I ever made, after marrying my wife. She almost didn't let us move, but I did the math in how much we would pay in property taxes over 10 years in IL vs IN and she never looked back.

EFFINGHAM COUNTY, Ill. (25 News Now) - The first lawsuit challenging the state of Illinois’ new assault weapons ban has been filed.

Former Attorney General Candidate Tom DeVore filed a lawsuit on behalf of Accuracy Firearms in Effingham County Court Tuesday morning.

In a statement, DeVore calls the assault weapons ban “an outright attack on the constitutional rights of lawful gun owners.”

An Effingham County judge will hold a hearing on an emergency motion for a temporary restraining order on Wednesday Morning.

Here is a good story on fox, this morning:

Illinois sheriffs, lawmakers refuse to enforce gov's assault weapons ban: 'In danger of losing our country'

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker enacted an 'assault weapons ban,' but sheriffs and state lawmakers are refusing to enforce it, calling it 'unconstitutional.'
