Have to agree w melensdad
I was under the impression that as long as you separate the ammo from the gun and put it in the box your ok for temporary travel into/through Illinios. THIS IS WHAT SUCKS ABOUT OUR LAWS. While some aspects seem crystal clear many laws can be interpreted differently especially when you combine state w federal statues. Laws seem to be written w loopholes that can be interpreted differently and it screws everything up. Though our states are sovereign there always seems to be something that if a cop wants you bad enough they can still mess w you or take your firearms temporarily to make the whole deal not worthwhile. Our country was founded on the right to bear arms and protect ones family and self. I would transport it like u say and print the laws out that melensdad provided. Once a cop sees you have the legal documents I dont think they are gonna mess w you as they arent going to want to dick around reading paperwork, as long as everything else is on the up and up. Make sure you are clean and clear w yourself and vehicle. I will get off my horse now and have a cup of Joe. Good luck...
