      indiana ltch in Chicago

      if i understand correctly,C(r)OOK county has a 10 round mag limit,only if a town didnt exempt or enact thier own limit on mags. so you could effectively be a criminal in lansing,but be ok in calumet city(just an example,i have not found the individual towns laws)

      Mag Capacity

      Shoot/carry whatever is comfortable for you. In my opinion,go for the 9mm. Heard nothing but good things about the shields. buy extra mags too. I don't ever want my last words to be "I didn't have enough ammo". I always carry my EAA Match 40, with 2 21round henning mags,bersa 380 in the pocket...

      Anyone run 50rd Lanchester mags in SMG's/MAC pistols?

      Going to be using it with my mpa mini 9mm. Just got heads up on a lanchester 9mm 50 round mag for sale. I know they are basically the 32 round Sten mags in design. Any problems other than rust and corrosion I should look for to run through the gun before I go to the range?

      Bersa Thunder CC problems, and Bersa customer service... Any good?

      Winter Carry Options

I have one particular pullover hoodie that no matter what i do,makes for very uncomfortable carrying with...

Bought new for 699(a bit above msrp,but got extra mags with it) ,put about 700 rounds thru it no failures of any kind. Older models (2005) ran into frames/slides cracking,mostly with 10mm. After searching for a...

      Well,Rahm Emanuel is at it again....

      I suppose that travelling in your car with a concealed handgun would be possessing a "weapon",so even if i'm legally carrying per section 40 of HB183 I'll still get hit with a fine and 30 days in jail for simply crossing into the imaginery/poorly defined 1/8 mile of a park or 1000ft of a school...

      Well,Rahm Emanuel is at it again....

      As for now, I have yet to see the real ordinances(printed text) that just passed. i've looked on the city website,then CPD website. Nothing. Google didn't help so i'm going off what is in the news article. Anyone here have any links that could help those of us that travel to Illinois/Chicago?

      Well,Rahm Emanuel is at it again....

      doesn't appear preemtion would as it only effects laws made on or before the date the ccw law passed. I did look on the most frequent way i take to work to check for any schools (1000ft) or parks (1/8 mile,6am to 11pm per the ordinance). I can really only take one way into work that is...

      Well,Rahm Emanuel is at it again....

      I'm Hoping the NRA can put the pressure on Chicago criminals like Rahm. I would hate to try finding another job in a different location that pays as good as this,but if need be I will....even funnier, Chicago outlawed any mags over 12 and now they are outlawing those to 10 rounds. Im getting...
