Hot damn! I hope the progress continues on the gun issue throughout the country.

Now hopefully NY will change there damn laws.
Woo-hoo! Can't wait for shoot-outs around my neighborhood.
De facto nothing will change. Chicago will just enact crazy strict measures like DC did. Since Heller in 2008 less than 100 guns have been legally registered in DC.
A good decision for sure. I think you are right astro. I wonder of they will add a new environmental tax to ammo? Owning a gun but not able to afford ammo, yuk!
More like 800, but it's still a bunch of BS.
Must have missed a zero, I swear the article I read said 82. Could have been 820.
As a California resident, I have lived having my 2nd Amendment rights whittled away, bit by bit. Many of the draconian restrictions have been made in the name of safety. All firearms mfgs. must submit samples of each variation of a firearm to the state for "safety testing" So if a handgun or rifle is offered in various barrel length or grip configurations each one must be tested, at great expense to the mfg. Even if it offered in different colors each must be tested. That's why I have so few choices here in California.
I will be very surprised if this decision will have any effect here in California. The state has too many damn lawyers and will keep this tied up in litigation for ages.

You don't have to wait, they've been happening there for years.
damn beat me to it lol :beer:
Yes, he's already said that he would enact so much red tape as to make it impossible to buy a gun in Chicago.
That's fine, but then what is stopping me from going out to the suburbs and buying one, then bringing it back home to Chicago?
We don't have "gun registration" in Illinois. They just do a background check before you buy, just like any other state.
After this ruling, there's nothing Daley can do to prevent people from owning a handgun in Chicago. Am I missing something?
Yes you are, its called home rule. Look at Cook county vs most of the rest of the state. There are many things that a resident can not own living in Cook county but can in others.
at least now you can shoot back.
that's kind of what i meant from my last post above but i didn't specify it that way.
