Illinois Gun Owner Lobby Day
Wed. March 18, 2015
Prairie Capitol Convention Center
Springfield, IL
Mark this important date on your calendar. If you need to reserve a vacation day before the end of the year - DO IT NOW! This may be one of the most important IGOLD events so far. We know gun free zones are killing zones. It is important we show our new legislators and new governor, Bruce Rauner, that we oppose any further restrictions on our Second Amendment rights and that we support.

This is interesting. I'm an OH resident in the process of getting his CCW license and it was only recently that I was told how anti-gun the IL state laws were. Doesn't make any sense to me, given the geographical location smack dab in the middle of the relatively conservative midwest--a relative hotbed for gun rights--but I was told that it's the Chicago area that has pushed for the legislation.
What sort of political climate led to the restrictive ownership and carry laws in IL? Not trying to stir up a s--t storm, just curious….
