I travel for a living. One of the perks is to stop in at a LGS and see what is in the used rack. I feel sorry for all you guys stuck in your narrow minded thinking about "communist States" etc... Illinois has as many active competitive shooters and ranges as any other state.
Gunowners in Illinois are no different than any other state. They are just outnumbered right now.
I am in Iowa at this moment and I am leaning toward buying a used Anschutz 54 prone rifle that I saw in a LGS today. It is from an estate sale. If I buy it, it will have found a good home. It will never show up anywhere else.
Judgementalism is running rampant around here...
I do not see any one being judgmental. We are all responding to a swift kick in the jewels.
These 2 company's were covert in what they did and now are scrambling to spin the facts into their favor. Instead of standing before the masses with an explination they are playing Democrat politics.
That you do not see this is confusing.
I have been on the Springfield band wagon got years. Own/built up/put many in the platform through influence. I feel betrayed inn some off beat manor. How is this being judgmental.
