Firearm Alert Vol. 7, No. 2 Jan. 30, 2012
Proposed "Assault Weapons Ban" is Back and the Fight Is On!
Stop HB1294, HB1599, HB1855
Chicago legislators once again are trying to rule over gun owners statewide. The outrageous "Assault Weapons Ban" is back via State Rep. Eddie Acevedo who represents District 2 in Chicago. HB1294 is a repeat effort to ban just about every sporting and self-defense gun owned in Illinois, along with magazines holding more than 10 rounds, unless of course you still have the receipt from when you bought the gun or magazine some 15-20-30 years ago. This is another attempt by Chicago and Cook County' to prevent law-abiding citizens from exercising their Second Amendment rights.
