That little turd card has been around since 1968. I had to get one while stationed oversees in order to bring my guns back to ill legally. Have had one ever since. Apparently if you are a criminal you don’t need one to buy a gun...only the law abiding.
Chances are the criminal will receive a pat on the hand and released, after using said firearm in the execution of a crime. So why would they waste their time obtaining an FOID card? 8>p
