Hello all:
Can anyone tell me if the Cobra Ent. .32ACP pistol is classified as such here in "The Peoples Republic of Illinois"?
Thank you in advance.
Dave

  I am not aware of any such clasification in Illinois, yet.

  That list should just say anything that shoots a projectile.[V]

  This list actually has the SIG MOSQIUTO and the WALTHER P22 on it, sure there is a lot of antique and some real junk on the list but the Sig and Walther ?
  What bunch of idiots to put them on the list.

  These "junk gun" lists are mostly about banning low-cost guns.
  
  The "idea" is to prevent criminals from buying cheap "throwaway" guns, though I think the effect is to keep guns out of the hands of poor people (though maybe that's part of the intent, too).
  
  Anyway, the reason the Sig and Walther are on there is because the .22 "replica" guns are made with zinc-alloy frames, and that's typically one of the features used to separate "junk" guns from "good" ones (notwithstanding the fact that the Sig and Walther in question are not inexpensive and not low-quality).

  I had forgotten about that one because it is Chicago only. They are nuts. Many of these are antiques or Curio&Relic guns.
