Quoted:
I am selling a few full/high capacity mags and someone from another site stated they live in Belleville, IL.. I have been trying to research answers but am having a difficult time finding any. Are there any legal no-no's to full capacity mags? Any help would be appreciated. I live in Swansea, joined at the hip to Belleville... No issues with hi-cap mags down here, in pistol or rifle. ETA: It's only Crook county and Shitcago area that have issues with hi-cap mags. Down state is Land of Lincoln, not Land of Corruption like up North. |

By law units of local gov are required to provide firearm ordinances to
the State Police, who publish them on the web here. There may be a few stragglers but they are supposed to be there if they have restrictions. |

If you are selling them for handguns, they are now covered by the Illinois State Law and individual city laws no longer apply.
Read this in your Illinois law statutes. House Bill 183. For long guns however, the restrictions may still apply. |

However No One Knows for sure if Handgun magazines are now regulated by the state . A test case and court decision will be the final word as to whether a magazine is a part of a pistol or an accessory |

Not going to say it is impossible for there to be arrests or court cases but, I'll be surprised if there is.
Actually, the law is pretty clear...state controls handgun laws and that would encompass the magazines too. I'm sure there has been opportunity for arrests but never happened. We are getting far enough into this law's implementation for these things to have surfaced...But, this IS IL and anything is possible. |
