I know this is an old posting but I had a question regarding the purchase of firearms for Chicago residents. I am signed up for the CFP training class in a week but of course don't yet have my permit. Can I purchase a shotgun with my FOID card and keep it in the burbs until I actually receive my CFP if my FOID/license are registered in Chicago?

It is more of a logistical thing since I plan on being in the far burbs for other reasons and would prefer if I could kill two birds with one stone by special ordering the gun then and depending on when it comes in I would leave it in the burbs or bring it to the city if I received my CFP at that point.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
