Hope to see you out at our new range in Winnebago. Good group of guys to hook up with as I see your number is relatively new. Don't be afraid to ask the questions that all new cowboy shooters have. We'll try to help where ever we can. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/good.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':good:' /> <br />

Almost forgot, a word of warning, they seem to pick on guys with the name of "Jim" or maybe it's just my winning personality. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':whistling:' />

?So where the heck to do you keep your weapons. I believe last time I looked, Wilmette was one of the really nasty towns that didn't allow ANY ownership of guns (like Chicago, which has become a beacon of peacefulness after that move).
We enjoyed shooting with you last year at Bristol and I look forward to seeing you this year at the GGP shoots too.<br />

Thanks to everone for the warm welcome... as to the Wilmette "question's".... the Village discoverd a thing called the 2nd Amentment (this all came to a head after the SAME home was invaded TWICE by the SAME burglar and the homeowner shot the burglar on the second attempt)! After all the national & international "press" the State of Illinois passed a law that pre-empted all local anti-gun laws when guns are used in home defense. Add the fact that the law is a ordance, the upcoming Supreme Court case in spring and it appears that most such laws are in deep doo-doo. Santa Fe Jim

You just never know with a bunch of judges, not to mention it will take years for the court battles locally to put down the remainder of all the crap that's on the books in various municipalities.

I like the opinion that was written by the 3rd circuit, but unfortunately, it isn't quite what is facing the Supreme court.
