Been there, done that. Lived in IL for 10 yrs (minus the 1 yr hiatus I took to Kimchiland).

Got denied for my Beretta 92FS purchase back in '93 (after paying for teh gun, having it trtansferred from a MO dealer to an IL dealer, and waiting my 3 days). All because I had moved 2 blocks down the same street. My new address didn't match the address in IL's records. Took another week to get everything straightened out.






You all need to quit bitchin about background checks (BC). It's well documented that no bad guy has been able to acquire a firearm since the BC system has gone into place. In fact, all crimes with firearms committed since the BC system has been implemented have been committed by so called "lawful" gun owners. Ban 'em all; that's what I say.

And in that vane, I will be manning a firearms turn-in location at my home for those who wish to make themselves right in the eyes of the law.
