I recently won a TC muzzle loader from a company in Illinois. When I requested that they ship the item to my house, they told me that I had to have it shipped to an FFL dealer. I told them it was not required by my state, nor the Federal government. They told me that Illinois required it.
Seems like Illinois has now decided that muzzle loaders are a NICS check item, (Form 4473 required item) in that state. So if you want to purchase a muzzle loader from a store/company in Illinois, be prepared to pay an FFL transfer fee, in addition to the shipping fee, and the price of the gun.
Will the madness never end?
