I did not think an ordinance was required for populations above a certain size and they were automatically home rule?
https://www.palatine.il.us/555/Home-Rule-Authority Home Rule Authority In 1970, by virtue of a population above 25,000 people, the Village of Palatine achieved home rule status with the passage of the revised Constitution of Illinois. As a home rule community, Palatine has the authority to exercise any power or perform any function pertaining to its government and affairs including, but not limited to, the powers to regulate for the protection of the public health, safety, morals, and welfare, and to license, tax, and incur debt. Authority & Latitude Home rule communities have far greater authority and latitude to make their own decisions than non-home rule municipalities. Even though the state of Illinois has granted home rule units flexibility and authority to enact taxes, borrow money, regulate local activities, alter their government structure, and seek innovative solutions to local problems, the General Assembly has imposed several restrictions on the use of home rule powers. First and foremost, home rule units may not tax income, earnings, and/or occupations, or license for revenue unless authorized to do so by the General Assembly; define or punish for felonies; or incur debt payable from property taxes that matures more than 40 years from the date of issuance. Furthermore, the General Assembly may restrict or pre-empt home rule powers by three-fifths majority vote of the legislature. |

Tried to call the number to ATF for last 2 weeks left several messages no response, also worked with local PD they also tried to call them no response back. Local PD saying that they don't know what exactly ATF is asking, they told me Palatine is a home rule community, but they won't write me a letter to submit to ATF I have 6 days left before my application gets kicked, with no response from ATF and local PD can't help even tho person who tried to help me from PD was very cool guy and I knew that he was trying to help me but couldn't get response back from ATF.

Someone from the local PD finally emailed me back but only with a document that says Palatine is home rule. I don’t think that’ll be enough for the ATF.
Edit: I emailed back asking if there are any ordances on the books that I could use showing we are exempt and they said there are none they are aware of. Looks like I’m officially stuck with pistols now. On the bright side, at least the $400 I’ll get refunded can go into those builds. |

Simple fact is this, unless your locality has a grandfathered AW ban, if your in IL, SBRs are legal. They are legal for corporations, they are legal for trusts. They are legal for individuals. How do I know, simple, I had an Illinois legal SBR before anyone else did, and I did it without any FFL of any kind, about 15 years ago. With the new statute from what, 2013, they just made it easier without an argument from ATF.
Before getting my own FFL/SOT, I helped people, corporations, and one trust, all get registered SBRs in Illinois, well over a dozen of them. If anyone with a FOID card wants a SBR, if they will do what they are told to do (and it does not require an SOT), I will sell them on ATF Form 4 an SBR, on my own AR lower, which does not require that engraving nonsense, as its already ATF approved marked. If they don't want to buy one from me, I'll still walk them through it, and if they have a fOID card, and don't live in the wrong city, it will be approved. |

Heres a question...i recieved my C&R yesterday as an individual, not factoring my better half, my question is if i fill out my Form 1 as a TRUST will it get kicked back because my C&R and Form 1 wont match?
I realize i can do the form 1 as an individual, but id like for my wife who does shoot be able to train or use the rifle for a possible home defense scenario while im not around! Note: ive called the ATF and ive left messages for an NFA examiner, but havnt gotten a response. Thanks fellas |

Unless something has (recently) changed, you can't get a SBR approved in Illinois on a trust.
To my knowledge, no one can shoot (or be in possession of) the rifle without you being present. |

Sooooo, to all of us who have gotten C+R licenses. What is there to prevent CLEOs from using this knowledge to come after us when a ban goes into effect. This would provide probable cause that high capacity assault weapons are owned by the licensee.
