Any idea Don as to reciprocity in the new bill; will Illinois honor any other state's permit holders?

I haven't read the bill itself. The news itself snuck up on me and it seems a lot of others as well.

"The license is valid for 5 years and the license fee is $150 for a resident and $300 for a non-resident."

Reciprocity is something that's, IMO, going to have to wash itself out.

Lived in Southern Illinois for 40 years.....Moved to Georgia....
Got tired of my tax money going to support Chicago....

Some of my friends in Illinois will be very happy with the new CC Bill...... 8)
I hope they include a reciprocity law with other States....

Long over due. I'm sure the politicians in Chicago are fuming and since the word's "shall not be infringed." aren't lately in their vocabulary, they're be conniving to come up with all kinds of limitations. Meanwhile the bodies will keep stacking up in the morgue until they go after the gangs.

Yep....All they have to do is enforce the laws on the books....

Prosecute the gangs as terrorists......That's what they are....
