in Illinois you may only possess an unloaded concealed firearm outside your vehicle in the immediate vicinity and only for the purpose of storing in in a container in the trunk. I just came back from Chitcago a few days ago and brushed up on the laws.

...and only outside your vehicle in the parking lots of their GFZ's and only with an Ill license.

Just keep your empty gun case in the front seat with you for if you need to get it to your trunk. :dude:

While I don't disagree in principle, for the purposes of this thread it might be nice to give our visitor some advice that won't get him arrested.

Sure, but he seemed smart enough to know the difference. However accurate it may be.

We need to start living by our principles...

I ran into someone like you the other day online. Kept rightously arguing that the 2nd Amendment is all you needed, and was prattling on about Acts are not Laws, and something about two different States of Michigan and Maritime law.

Going all Constitutional is fine and all, but I try and keep at least one foot in reality, lest both feet end up in prison.

Saw that video did you ;D

Yeah I was talking to that guy too... its kind of impossible to have a reasonable discussion with him.

'Scienzoflyfe' I believe, if we're referring to the same individual.
