ACTION ALERT: Geneva, IL air gun ordinance would make practice in the home illegal

Thu, 10/29/2015 - 20:39

From our friends at the Illinois State Rifle Association…

 

LEGISLATIVE ALERT – GENEVA ILLINOIS

Police Chief Steve Mexin is proposing the most restrictive air gun ordinances in the state of Illinois. If passed, it would be illegal to practice marksmanship using an air gun or BB gun in your own home. We are asking all firearm owners and freedom loving citizens to oppose this over-reaching ordinance.

The next meeting will be held at the Geneva City Hall at 7:00 pm on Monday, November 2nd. Please plan to arrive between 6:30 – 6:45pm. Use the south entrance. Kurt Koenig has agreed to lead in this effort. You may call him at (630) 945-0994. Geneva City Hall is located at 22 South First Street in Geneva.
Please plan to attend.

Was he looking to educate people about gun safety (definitely not) or was he more concerned about his own safety buying a gun or ammunition?

Inquiring minds would like to know.
