Illinois Gun Store experience this weekend....

Traveled through Illinois a few days ago and made a stop at a large sporting goods store in Champaign, IL. I have purchased many items there over the years. This trip Magazines, optics, most firearm accessories, Hunting equipment etc were all 25% off. All rifles and shotguns were 15% off. Handguns were on sale depending on the model.

My first thought was Wow what a great Christmas sale.....then I realized they are dumping inventory. A sales person more or less confirmed it. They are pretty sure there will be a ban in place sometime after the first of the year....

That night in our hotel room, I watched the news and there was Dickie Durbin and several Illinois "experts" and political folks saying the ban of "Assault Weapons" would be a great thing and the crime rate will drop...and Durbin said they need to push this on a national level too.....

What a bunch of lies and liars....
