We just were given the right to conceal carry last year. You have to go through 15 hours of classes I believe in order to do so. You also have to have a FOID card in order to purchase a weapon. In order to get a FOID you have to go through a background check and pay over $100 I believe. A FOID is actually unconstitutional but it's Illinois. There are other things but those are the most frustrating. Like I don't have a FOID or CCW and if I am driving hubby's truck, I could get into some serious trouble because there is a 9 mil in the console. We know 95% or more of the local police so I don't stress but it could be a potential issue. My kids shoot and handle guns frequently and actually have their own. My oldest is set to take hunter safety course next month since he's just now old enough to do so. He's not going to learn anything he doesn't already know. Oh and in order to hunt, you have to take this two day course as well. It's mostly all a bunch of bull crap our state government thinks they need to put their dirty hands in.
