Here in Illinois I’ve been waiting for a CCL renewal since January.

First time FOID approvals are taking 4 months.

It’s utterly ridiculous.

I think your CCL is still valid pending issuance of the renewal, IF you submitted your renewal application prior to your original CCL’s posted expiration date.

Not much in the shops these days. Reduced supply due to COVID distancing in the production facilities combined with huge demand for self defense.

You are correct. I carry the receipt with me to prove I did it. I heard there’s a lawsuit pending in this but haven’t been able to find any recent information on it.

yes. a friend checked 20 stores including online. some stock but not the items he hoped to buy. so he bought a couple others just to have some defense capability. later, if the D’s can be stopped from stealing the election then things should calm down and he will buy the ones he really wanted
...not too much of a loss, as he will have a couple spares that can still go boom boom if needed.

but yes, this is just about like the TP shortage, ha!
