Bill/Issue: IL HB 240 - Permits Concealed Carrying while Bow Hunting

  • Position: Support
  • Author: Rep. Bennett (R-106)

HB 240 would permit hunters with a concealed carry license to carry a handgun during seasons where a firearm is prohibited from being used to hunt deer. This will allow people to better protect themselves from any unforeseen danger while in the wilderness without the worry of being arrested.

UPDATE: IL HB 240 failed in House.
