Questions about Illinois Gun Laws
I have a number of guns, rifles, shotguns, and handguns that will be handed down to my children and grandchildren some day. Hopefully, my grandsons will appreciate a rifle or shotgun that was from their great-great-grandfather. I would like to give some of them out now but one lives in Cook County, outside Chicago city limits.
Can I legally give him a handgun? He doesn't have a FOID or whatever is required at this time. What about BATF regulations? Should I have any concerns if he doesn't get the FOID?
Thanks

Can't begin to answer your question, but it serves as an excellent illustration of the usurpation of Amendment II's 'Shall Not Be Infringed" mandate on government. 0 -
First of all an Illinois resident is required to have a FOID card to own a firearm. Are you an Illinois resident? If not, transfer may have to go through FFL to be legal. How old is the son or grandson? Can't pull age reguirements for FOID out out of memory at the moment. 0 -

True....
From the Illinois State Police site....
quote:The Firearms Services Bureau is responsible for administering the Firearm Owner's Identification Program (FOID) and the Firearm Transfer Inquiry Program (FTIP). The FOID card is required for any resident of Illinois to possess or purchase firearms. etc.
