Illinois, as far as I know, is the only state that has the FOID card system, and you have to take a safety course before you can get a FOID card, and you have to have a FOID card to purchase a firearm. It is not a small test either, it is a 2 day class, out in the field stuff and then a test that ha...

Dokken has a good book out on retrievers. Bring water with you, be it bottled or water in a squirt bottle to give the pup a drink every 20-30 min or so. Check cord is a good idea until come or heel is burned into the brain. Have fun, and try to leave on a high note.

Add this to the already off the wall stuff with the AR and AR-style guns that will be taxed, then you have to allow ATF to come in your home whenever they feel like it to check to make sure your AR or compatible gun is at the correct standards. This crap is just getting crazy.
