    Looks like there are legs.

    Looks like there is the gun ban, a high-cap mag ban, and maybe a gun range super regulation (ban) in the works.

    Illinois Gun Ban Legislation HB 1263 Summary

    Posted by Ernest


    Glad I'm not still in Illinois. Though from this it looks I would only have two guns that fell under the tender administrations of the Illinois State Police.

    Ok, here's a brief summary of the weapons banned under this legislation:

    -Any semi-automatic or pump action rifle which can accept a detachable magazine or has a folding stock, a pistol grip, or a barrel shroud.

    -Any semi-automatic pistol which can accept a detachable magazine or has an external magazine or a shroud or weighs over 50 ounces unloaded.

    -Any weapon that is a semi-automatic version of an automatic one.

    -Anything semi-automatic which holds more than 10 rounds.

    Under this, you have to register with the state police any of these weapons no later than 90 days after January 1, 2014. After that date, you can only transfer the weapon to a heir, to someone out of state, or to a licensed firearms dealer (who can't sell it to anyone in the state). And within 10 days you've got to notify the state police as to who you sold/transferred it to.

    Then the law exempts law enforcement, prison wardens, soldiers (only while performing their official duties or traveling in Illinois), and registered olympic atheletes.

    There's a lot of stuff in there about control, licensing, and monitoring of shooting ranges which I won't go into.

    Getting caught with an unregistered weapon after January 1, 2014 is a CLASS 3 FELONY. Getting caught the second time is a CLASS 2 FELONY. The felony charges stack with each other. If you get caught with 3 unregistered guns then it is THREE DIFFERENT CHARGES.

    If you lose your guns in a "tragic canoe accident" then you have 72 hours to notify the state police.

    The Floor Amendments In Illinois

    The gun prohibitionists in the Illinois Senate are using existing House Bill 815 and House Bill 1263 as their vehicle to license shooting ranges, ban so-called assault weapons, ban new standard capacity magazines, and require registration and fees for grandfathered magazines. Both bills are the subject of hearings currently on-going by the Illinois Senate Public Health Committee.

    HB 815 originally dealt with updating a nuclear safety law while HB 1263 deals with sexual offenders.

    HB 815 has two amendments. The first, Senate Floor Amendment No. 001 deals with licensing shooting ranges and "large capacity ammunition feeding devices." It was introduced by Sen. Dan Kotowski (D-Chicago). The text of the amendment can be found here.

    The second amendment to HB 815, Senate Floor Amendment No. 002, requires the registration of grandfathered magazines with the Illinois State Police and the payment of a $5 per magazine fee. It was also introduced by Sen. Dan Kotowski. The full text of this amendment can be found here.

    HB 1263 has two amendments and both were submitted by Sen. Antonio Munoz (D-Chicago). Senate Floor Amendment No. 005 contains another range licensing bill and, more importantly, the assault weapons (sic) ban. .50 BMG firearms are also banned. The text of this amendment can be found here.

    The second amendment to HB 1263, Senate Floor Amendment No. 006, deals with the existing so-called assault weapons. It requires their registration and the payment of a $10 fee per rifle to the Illinois State Police. .50 firearms will require a $15 per firearm fee along with their registration. The text of this amendment can be found here.

    Re: illinois senate president to introduce bill banning ALL modern firearms

    wow

    I wonder what the best course of action would be if this actually passes? What if hundreds of people (upstanding community members) just decided to ignore it and chose to go to jail?

    6 in District of Columbia v. Heller
    (No. 07-290), found that the
    7 Second Amendment to the United States Constitution protects an
    8 individual right to possess a firearm, and to use that firearm
    9 for traditionally lawful purposes, including self-defense; and

    10 WHEREAS, in that same decision, the United States Supreme
    11 Court also found that the individual right to possess and use a
    12 firearm was not unlimited, that the government has the ability
    13 to regulate the possession and use of firearms, and that this
    14 right "does not protect those weapons not typically possessed
    15 by law abiding citizens for lawful purposes"

    5 holding in the Heller case applied to the States, reiterating
    6 its findings regarding the validity of the regulation of the
    7 individual right to possess and use a firearm, and noting
