Under a new law that took effect earlier this year, residents in possession of assault weapons are required to submit an endorsement affidavit by Jan. 1, 2024.
An endorsement affidavit is now available for Illinois residents who are required to register their assault weapons under a new ban signed into law by Gov. J.B. Pritzker earlier this year.
The affidavit must be submitted by Jan. 1, 2024.
People in Illinois who possessed assault weapons, assault weapon attachments, .50 caliber rifles and .50 caliber cartridges before the law was passed must submit the affidavit, but large-capacity ammunition feeding devices don’t require one.
Guns won’t be confiscated as a result of the new law, but the registration affidavit is still required.

Thank you. Good to know.
Supreme Court hear this yet?
Good one.
I am glad I wasn’t dumb enough to live in Illinois. :P
Where is the NRA? Are they planning on fighting this?

This is the frontline folks. If they can get away with it here it’s coming to a town near you... eventually. Please consider supporting our second amendment warriors.

Actually this is meant to facilitate confiscation. These guns can’t be transferred under the law so once the owner dies the gun must be destroyed or turned in to the state. It just delays the confiscation. But keeps track of the guns in the meantime.
ROFL!!! Perfect.
Guns won’t be confiscated as a result of the new law, “NOW”, but the registration affidavit is still required.
“NOW” is my addition.
Gov. Grima Wormtongue signs another unconstitutional order that will be widely ignored.
“Guns won’t be confiscated as a result of the new law, but the registration affidavit is still required.”
Anyone who believes that is a moron totally ignorant of history.
Pritzker can go reproduce asexuality.

“Guns won’t be confiscated as a result of the new law.” YET
I believe in states that have a similar requirement the compliance rate is about 15%.
Boating accident.
If they register at comparable rates to Californians, then they’ll get about 10% of what they’re after.
Even Californians know better than to follow an unconstitutional law.
So States can force individuals to testify against themselves and violate the Fifth Amendment ?
So I could register my Swiss Army knife because it is an assault weapon.
Suuuuure...... they only want you to ‘register’ them...
