Daley & Devine had about 20 - 30 gun control bills they tried to get passed statewide last year.
And Devine is running for governor.

Is this article implying that a non-resident of Illinois is not allowed to buy ammunition in that state?
To: William Tell
The law is sort of wierd. If I remember right, it reads that you must have a valid foid to purchase or posess firearms or ammunition, the exception being if you hold a valid non resident hunting permit. There are also exceptions for non-residents traveling with firearms and for an FFL selling to an out of state resident (for example in a border town). Illinois has reciprocity agreements aith all the bordering states for non resident purchases of long guns (and probably ammo) but if you are not from a bordering state you are out of luck.
Illinois weapons laws are so confusing that most law enforcement officers dont even properly understand them.

You think YOU guys have it rough. Live in New York!!! In order to own a handgun AT ALL, you must have a pistol permit. Actually, we in Chicago are allowed to own a properly registered handgun, but we are not allowed to store, carry, have, hold, possess, wield, cache, date, juggle, or play drop the pistol with a handgun anywhere within the city limits.
Since I live so close to Cabrini, I can't tell you how comforting it is to know that those apparent ruffians I frequently see are restricted by law from using firearms in their criminal enterprises.
