Here are a few examples of new laws or bills introduced in Illinois since the beginning of 2019: triple the waiting period for long gun purchases, state licensing of dealers in addition to the FFL, special tax on ammo, and serialization of ammunition. I'm sure I've missed a few. Clearly it's fair to say there is a continuing threat to gun rights in the State of Illinois. And we have a Democrat governor and Democrat super majorities in both the house and senate. So a lot of the crazy bills, like serialization of ammunition, have a decent chance of passing and being signed into law.
