I think you have to actually own a retail business to get an FFL. Everything I said earlier was in reference to buying over the internet. Still easy to go into a store, fill out the forms, and buy what you want.

Right now handguns, while selling briskly are still priced within reason. Anything that would have been under the old assault weapons ban is selling for a premium, althought there are deals to be had and the pressure was easing until last week when Eric Holder reiterated Obama's pledge to ban semi automatic firearms last week and get this, we need to do it to stem the violence in Mexico! I **** you not. We need to disarm Americans to save Mexico. Holder also called the american people "Cowards" when it comes to race in a speach last week, but that would be another thread. Janet Reno was a saint compared to this guy.

Anyway to answer your questions, you can buy a hand gun off the internet but it must be transfered to someone that holds a Federal Firearms Lisense. You can apply for an FFL but it takes a long time, you will have to interview with someone from BATF and essentially be set up as a store, although you do not need a store front, it helps.

Easiest way to purchase is for a local dealer to accept the transfer, they do the background check and usally charge a fee from $10 to $40 for the transfer. There are a lot sites that list who will do a transfer and the majority of dealers do. If you need a handgun purchase permit in you state, should go do that first, that way you don't get a surprise.

And for those suggesting gun shows, there haven't been deals at a gun show for a couple years, at least the ones I have attended. Seems to be the place these days to gouge the unsuspecting.

Anyone bought ammo lately??? Shortage... I buy in bulk from ammoman, ammodepot, always sold out of 9mm, 45 and other popular sizes. Bought 300 rds 9mm at Walmart yesterday,first time in 2 months I was able to find any on the shelf. The guy behind the counter said it's usually sold before he can put it on the shelf.

fFor CCW laws check on packing.org, Illinois is very restrictive on gun ownership.

They used to be and if you hunt hard enough, like anything there are deals but they are much much fewer and far between that 4 or 5 years ago.

An example Wolf .223 FMJ 55 gr $260 for 1000 rounds at Wideners.com ( a low grade plinking ammo) but at the gun show last saturday, multiple vendors $250 for 500 rounds of it. Just fishing for the unsuspecting.

Any tactical optics were $50 to $100 over internet prices, my friend did get a nice deal on a Shepard scope that was $150 off the list price but that's a limited market item. Another friend picked up some 12 gauge Remmington trap shells for under $3 a box.

99.9% of the stuff was at list or better though but then again it's capitalism at work.
