ISRA Thursday Bulletin - January 30

[font=Arial, sans-serif]EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S MESSAGE[/font] <br />
<br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif]On Wednesday, January 29th, 2014, the Governor kicked off the Spring Legislative Session with the State of the State address. For the first time in many years, all kinds of outlandish anti-gun schemes were not included. I do expect to see various attacks on Concealed Carry coming from Representatives and Senators who represent legislative districts within the City of Chicago. [/font] <br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif]As you know, the Illinois State Police (ISP) has rule-making power granted to them by the Concealed Carry Act. One recent change deals with how the B-27 target is to be scored. Originally, any hit inside the black area of the target was counted. The new rules require all hits to be inside the scoring rings to be considered a hit. From now on, only the hits inside the 7, 8, 9 and 10 rings will be counted. Instructors should take note of this change. If you have already qualified under the old system, you are OK. This can be found in the Illinois Register in Section 1231.10 Definitions for those who care to look. [/font] <br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif]Right now, the Firearms Concealed Carry Law (FCCL) is still being tweaked. We can expect this to go on during the Spring 2014 Legislative Session. We will keep you advised. [/font] <br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif]CCL Scoreboard:[/font] <br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif]32,968 Concealed Carry Applications have been received thus far.[/font] <br />
<br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif]IGOLD is on Wednesday, March 5, 2014. Plan to be there. [/font] <br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif]Thank you for being a member. [/font] <br />

Denny, is the new scoring mandate effective today? Jan. 30, 2014?

dd

As far as I know right now, it has been in effect for a short time but buried in the recent approved rules where no one saw it. I don't know of anyone who was aware of it until Pearson pointed it out. It should not effect anyone John and I have trained.

Wrangler Rich

With the superior marksmen that you & John trained, it wouldn't be an issue anyway........

Snidely Whiplash

[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]I think my target should be rescored. I employed an advanced gunfighting technique not covered by our range training.<br />

Snidely, that's not even your target. It belongs to some guy named Kevin!!<br />

As I told you at the range, Snidely, if the spitball doesn't stick, it doesn't count.
