The Bullpup Shoot 2014 thread is now tacked at the top of the forum (thanks to the Mods for offering to do that!)

The direct link to the thread is right here:

Bullpup Shoot 2014 tacked info thread

Just keep your rifle cased, unloaded (loaded mags are fine, just not in the gun).

Some places will let you buy ammo, some won't, it seems to vary.  I would bring ammo with you (there may be some for sale at the shoot, but better to bring it to make sure you have stuff that runs in your gun).

We have Conceal Carry but as of yet no reciprocity, so I would not CCW while in the state.  We do have SBR's but no full auto or suppressors.

Aurora, IL and Chicago/Cook COunty are the only places with Assault Weapon Bans on the books, pretty much everywhere else is fine, and the area with the hotel and range is totally fine with everything.

I was not joking when I said you get to shoot out of a moving armored vehicle on the 600 yard line stage!

www.thezombieshoot.com  is now live, registration is not open yet, but you can see the vendors, exhibits, and shooting stages.

Here is the list of shooting stages (including the kickass 600 yard armored vehicle ride!)

You are covered under Federal FOPA (Firearms Owner Protection Act) when travelling through Cook County, no worries- cased and unloaded and you are good to go.

Plenty of people have traveled through O'Hare with guns, and TSA doesn't care what you bring in and out as long as it is checked properly.

Sorry if that was not clear, I will update the FAQ!

I also just got word that Marc Krebs is so excited about the show that he has decided to bring out t his PKM belt fed and several suppressed AKs and let people try them out!


Yeah, techincally not bullpups, but I never met someone who turned down a chance to shoot a PKM either!
