The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - Illinois Set to Increase Penalty for no FOID

I read the proposed law as--

...."Specifically, the new bill would change the current state law from the lesser sentence of probation and mandate at least one year in prison for a person convicted of unlawful use of a weapon by carrying a loaded gun WITHOUT a firearm owner's identification card."..

2nd Amendments issues aside, this proposal will not effect those who have a FOID and the weapon is locked, unloaded and not in the cabin of the vehicle.
