Illinois fag here.

God. Fucking. Dammit.

I have an IRA I'm considering cashing out early to just panic buy guns.

If I panic buy $3,700 worth of stuff, what should I buy?

keep the IRA, youll thank me later. Find another source to get the money.

move out of your shit state and stop giving them any money.

>what should I buy?

A move to a free state.

What are the chances of this getting stopped?

Isn't the senate republican controlled or something?

Legislature is majority dem in both houses. The governor is republican but also kind of a cuck.

Fair.

I can't uproot my whole goddamn life, but I'll be spending the weekend writing local and state government.

This is the same bullshit as it always is.

Still what to panic buy?

Oh don't worry. If we just let them have this, they will leave us alone forevermore and we'll have finally saved gun rights! Don't worry, this is just a tactical retreat in the face of a strategic victory!

t. NRA and RINOs.

Are they grandfathered? Or is Illinois going full Australia?

It doesn't matter either way. In another ten years they will force you to turn in your grandfathered shit regardless. It already happened in California.

HOly shit the ride never end.

CALL your reps faggots.

>What are the chances
Higher if you start googling and making phone calls

Asking this question means you've already forgot what it means to be free.

+1

My birthplace state....now trying really hard to become like California when it comes to gun laws.

uhh, you might want to exercise your second amendment bro

Stripped AR-15 lowers.

Hopefully Rainer grows some balls here and vetoes this shit.

This. I have 5 sitting in the closet. Looks like I'm getting a Scorpion Evo early.

Wow and Illinois was great with its gun laws before this, this sure sucks.

Because that's going to stop the flow of guns from Indiana and the severe gun violence. Y'know all those gangbangers were using clearly using rifles and not tiny pistols stuffed into their crotch.

I didn't want to stay in this shithole anyway. :^)

So no telescoping stocks, no detachable magazines, and no bullet buttons allowed. They also require registration to be grandfathered in or you get a felony offense.

Agreed, they're already in massive debt and the huge outflow of people isn't helping

>a shroud that is attached to, or partially or completely encircles the barrel, and that permits the shooter to hold the firearm with the non-trigger hand without being burned;

>HAVING A SAFETY MEASURE MAKES IT AN ASSAULT RIFLE

What the fuck Illinois.

>move out of your shit state

This. Leave,and take your tax dollars.

How long before the supreme court slaps this shit down.

I'm not going to freak out until illinoiscarry.com people start freaking out. Even if they ban guns I'm not turning mine in or registering them.

Panic buying is no different than gambling.

If you wouldn't be perfectly fine with going to your nearest casino and playing blackjack with almost $4000, don't panic buy shit either

...

>(((KOHN)))

Lmao it's even more restrictive than commiefornia.

ONLY MASS MURDERERS HOLD THE BARREL WITH THEIR OFFHAND, ARE YOU A PSYCHOPATH?

Don't Illinois do this shit like twice a year and it never goes anywhere?

They'll ask the same question a thousand times until the answer is finally yes. Then it becomes locked in concrete as The New Normal. See Obamacare, faggot marriage, etc.

So glad I'm leaving this shit-hole state in August. I'll happily watch this state crumble from the outside.

AR lowers. Lots and lots of AR lowers. They will jump from the 60-100 you spend to 600-1200. Assuming they still allow the transfer of firearms purchased (and registered if that's how your state works currently) prior to the date the ban became effective.

emailed 'em via the nraila.org page

considering it's pretty much what exists in several other states, none.

move to Indiana or Tennessee, lower taxes, better everything

we are close to civil war aren't we?

Why the fuck would this ever be allowed to stand?

Wouldn't this make even something like an SKS an assault weapon, since the fore end of the stock partially encloses the barrel?

It doesn't define what constitutes a shroud, from what I can see.

This is fucking stupid.

Defacto semi auto ban based upon the vagueness of the barrel shroud line.

Argue, debate, educate, whatever, illinois people. Californian here, don't let this happen to your guns. Fight this where ever you find it.

I concur.

Its worse than California.

>You cannot change your trigger
>literally something that PREVENTS YOU FROM BURNING YOURSELF is classified as an assault feature.

won't go anywhere
relax

So you get to enjoy another swamphell summer first?
Pls take me with you

Grandfather clause? Y/N?

No troll question, does non-compliance work?

>does non-compliance work?

If you don't get caught it does, kinda. Hardly anyone registered their guns when the NY Safe Act happened just a few cucks. The problem is you can never take the gun outside of your house again and pretty much forget about it and lock it up in a closet.

Please tell me this won't pass... fuck this shithole
t. Illinoisfag

give them and inch and they take the mile

FUCK. My dads new purchases are just gonna be fuckin banned. God I hate this shithole. FUCK Illinois no one should comply to this bullshit.

I don't really know Cali's laws all to well since I live in a different state where I don't have to worry about such cuckery, but from what I can understand you can't have multiple "features" on a rifle, right?
Is simply buying "features", but "definitely not modifying the rifle" legal in Commiefornia? If so, what's to stop someone from just buying the feature and illegally modifying their rifle in the safety of their own home?

Spent the afternoon looking at houses in Wisconsin or Indiana along the border on zillow. This way I dont need to worry about another Job right away.

Democrat super majority in Congress. Multiple Republicans will not be running for reelection. Madigan still speaker. JB Pritzker will be a shoe in for governor. Anti-gunners have reaction for new laws. There is a reason they are trying for this now.

I live just a few miles from the Mississippi river, should I move to Iowa?

I've been to Iowa once. I have no desire to ever go back.

So if not now, it is coming at some point

>So if not now, it is coming at some point

Texas is turning blue bubba there are not many places to run too.

>TFW THAT WAS YOUR CHOICE TO FLEE TO

HELP I CAN'T WAKE UP

We have houses for cheap and we need to fortify in opposition to califags

Please for the love of God, move here.

AZ is becoming blue too thanks to spics

>mfw gun crimes still happen here in chicago
b-b-but we banned them all!

Fucking A I know. More whiteys need to turn out to vote.

Well that's just great. It WOULD be my fucking home state to fabricate this lunacy... so If I want to enjoy the very reasonable guns I have my sights on, I'd need to move....

Where has my country gone?

>not turning them red

Illinois has been fucked for years. You're delusional if you think people will care enough to act now.

There's a reason the dems are obsessed with replacing whites with browns.

How would the Heller vs DC decision factor into this? (It seems like a defacto semi-auto ban to me).

>investing into an illinois pension
might as well burn your money

So basically Chicago's cuck laws but state wide

And what the fuck do they mean about detachable magazines? That is so god damn stupid.

Well when you have ran out of all other options and they start knocking on your door to take your rightfully owned property the only thing left to do is to start shooting.

what is with the liberal obsession with barrel shrouds?

What's the realistic possibility this passes?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
FUCKING MADIGAN
FUCKING CHICAGO
FUCKING RAUNER AND HIS LACK OF TESTICLES
FUCK

Barrel shrouds?

Would that include free float handguards?

Wow, that would be funny seeing that happen.

Humor aside...just fuck my shit up.

Is it worth calling my state rep?
Also is it even worth looking up his positions on gun control?
>assault weapon means: (C) a semi-automatic pistol that has the ability to accept a detachable magazine
It's ok, they're taking care of that too

Arizona is going blue thanks to Mc Cain.

I want to move to arizons for the freedoms...but that tripple digit heat...I already did my time serving in Iraq.

Also I think captcha might be trying to tell me something

i'm not surprised anymore

Didn't they slap this shit down in 2014 when Quinn asked for this stuff? Democrats running the show and all?

Surely now the nigs will stop killing each other

>thread gets moved to Sup Forums
>first post blames niggers
Sup Forums never changes

The Supreme Court is basically refusing to hear any AWB cases because Kennedy is a swing vote and Roberts knows he would vote to uphold. So you have a patchwork of laws as different appellate courts give different rulings and SCOTUS refuses to hear lower court cases. Roberts is waiting for Kennedy to retire and get another conservative judge on the bench.

The legal way they get around it is that they didn't ban the gun itself, they simply banned some features. D.C. vs. Heller was overall a good thing, as it indicated that a weapon in "common use" could not be subject to a ban, but to get Kennedy to sign off, Scalia had to put a "reasonable restrictions" clause into the decision. So Illinois can argue that banning features is a "reasonable restriction." They know it's bullshit, we know it's bullshit, but they're pushing the law as far as it will go because in reality they want all your guns, all your ammo, and they want you cutting your steak with a fucking spoon. Because they are all rightly terrified that even the wealthiest and most powerful among them can be taken out by a $.30 bullet from a $150 rifle. So they nibble a little at a time, hoping the frog doesn't notice the water getting hotter.

They don't really know much about guns or how they function. they just want to ban what's scary and military looking. They hate the idea of a citizen militia because it's a threat their power.

IL doesnt have a gun problem, it has a nigger problem.
