Only two days left to stop gun bans in Illinois!

Contact with your elected officials is again needed, if this pointless legislation is to be stopped.  Illinois residents should contact their representatives within the next 48 hours.  A phone call would help greatly, a letter or fax sent by you TODAY would be even better.  Regardless of the means, you MUST contact them once again if you wish to retain your 2nd Amendment rights!                                                                                                                                                                             Even if you've already spoken to them, contact them again.  Tell your elected representatives that you OPPOSE HB1098 and HB2414.

While both bills ban the .50 caliber, HB2414 bans numerous semi-automatic rifles and shotguns as well.  Since most fifty-shooters also own shotguns and rifles of other calibers, HB2414 is doubly offensive to your rights.  Semi-auto bans failed to make a difference in crime at  the federal level.  They won't reduce crime at the state level.  And the fifty-caliber is historically even LESS of a threat, despite what Hollywood says.

Write and call your representatives today!  Since HB2414 also bans numerous other firearms, pass the word to your fellow shooters.  Ask them to contact their legislators as well.  Even if they don't own a fifty rifle, they have a stake in this too.
