"One is no more armed because he has possession of a firearm than he is a musician because he owns a piano. There is no point in having a gun if you are not capable of using it skillfully." (Lt. COL. Jeff Cooper U.S.M.C.)

Victor here. I am from the land that brings you Blago, Daley, Obama, Gutierrez, Schakowsky, Jackson, ad nauseum. I can hear Wrigley during home games, and walk my dog by the lake. I was around when Kennedy was shot. Audio video coporate stagehand type. In a union, but very ambivalent about it. It's a living. I do like guns, but do not like CAGE units. I hope to meet some of you, and help this forum become a force in the pro-gun movement to take back our rights in this state. Thanks to you guys that post to keep the rest of us informed. |

Training courses, lifetime NRA member, member of local pistol club (Pine Tree), have some pistols, working on getting some rifles ($$) Recently started an Illinois 2nd Amendment organization called ICarry.org. Working to see CCW happen in our state. Requesting any and all help from Illinois residents. Everything is free, we don't charge for membership or take donations, sell stuff, etc. We're a community dedicated to seeing the restoration of the 2nd Amendment to include a concealed carry provision! Join the fight Illinoians! Other than that, maybe if I start working more and saving money I'll be able to build one of those beautiful ARs I keep seeing everywhere on this forum! |
