I want to go but live in Michigan.  What do I need to know about transporting two ARs, an M1A, and a k98 into Illinois (ironic since most of my rifles were made there).  I just feel that, as a former resident of Cook County and Chicago I need to do something symbolic to stick it in Daley and Blowguyavitch's ass.

I need directions too.

Thanks!

Federal Law covers this.
The Firearms Owners Protection Act.
Local Law can't preempt state law even though New Jersey recently tried it by arresting an out-of-state traveler for not having a New Jersey Pistol Permit in an airport with a secured, "checked" firearm .

In the vein of sticking it in the ass, that man will very soon be sticking it in the ass of the State of New Jersey. He should probably retire quite comfortably off of that one.

And continuing on the theme of ass stickings, the Firearms Owners Protection Act- the same bill that allowed us to buy ammo through the mail and protects us from malicious prosecutions when traveling through municipalities with bullshit gun laws, is having it's 20th anniversary.

Sadly, it's a black one as it's the bill best known for totally sticking it in the ass machinegun owners

Make sure you guys read FOPA if you are going to rely on it.  I was surprised to learn that you have to have them in (1) a LOCKED case, and (2) inaccessible to the driver.

They're not officially open yet.  They open on March 31st.  However, if you call ahead they may be open on the weekends from now to then.

In any event, the next "blastfest" event will probably not be until mid-April.
