Illinois gun mfg. Support bad legislation

Hmm you're right, I see your point, I missed that.

I read that the yearly fee to be a FFL would be $1000 to $3000. There would be inspectors to check on gun shops and their salaries would be paid for out of the yearly gun shop fee. Illinois is broke so they can't and won't pay any part of it. Of course the fee might start out as $1000 to $3000 and go up to who knows what a year or two later.

If this passes a lot of small part time FFLs will probably close like one I've used only charged $15 for a transfer from another dealer I bought from out of state. He has a full time business but I'm sure he'd have to raise his fees for a transfer so high people wouldn't use him if he had to pay a yearly $1000 fee.

What really matters is how Springfield Armory and Rock River Arms got their exemption in this bill. Throwing the 2nd Amendment and your competitors under the bus by paying off, err lobbying, politicians is about as unsavory as it gets...
