Hey folks, I have a question about Chicago firearm permits.
I'm a 23 year old who recently graduated from college, all of my firearms are stored at my parents house in the suburbs. I currently stay with my girlfriend in the city but want to get a place of my own to not be a freeloader. If I get a place of my own in the city, I'd like to keep my parents address as my main address/on my license. So, would I need to get a Chicago firearm permit to keep a handgun at my hypothetical apartment if my address is still a suburban address? Would it just be easier to change my main address to a chicago address and get a permit? Side question, do you need a Chicago permit to conceal carry in Chicago? Thanks for any help you guys might have. |

There actually is still gun registration in Chicago. But it only applies to active Chicago Police officers. No one else. And CPD is required to register not only on-duty guns but all non-duty firearms as well. Because of this, CPD still maintains their gun registration unit.
