Howdy Folks!
While I enjoy great freedom to either open carry or conceal with a CCW permit (now pending), I grew up in Illinois and still have a house there. So I have a keen interest in the status of CCW legislation in Illinois.
I'd like to visit the old homestead in Illinois, but ain't much hankering to visit if I am not permitted to carry my firearm while there. Seems a bit odd that I can carry clear across several other states but not in my hometown! Naturally, Illinois is the only state without any carry option whatsoever, so far as I know. And I don't want to visit the state and spend money while there if I am denied my right to self defense. When travelling, in particular, I feel the need to have means of defense at my disposal.
So, if anybody can enlighten me on the state of affairs in Illinios as it stands today, I'd be much obliged for the information.
Thanks in advance,
Blessings,
