complete an automated search of its | 6 | | criminal history record information
files and those of the | 7 | | Federal Bureau of Investigation, including the
National | 8 | | Instant Criminal Background Check System, and of the files of
| 9 | | the Department of Human Services relating to mental health and
| 10 | | developmental disabilities to obtain
any felony conviction or | 11 | | patient hospitalization information which would
disqualify a | 12 | | person from obtaining or require revocation of a currently
| 13 | | valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card. | 14 | | (c) If receipt of a firearm would not violate Section 24-3 | 15 | | of the Criminal Code of 2012, federal law, or this Act the | 16 | | Department of State Police shall: | 17 | | (1) assign a unique identification number to the | 18 | | transfer; and | 19 | | (2) provide the licensee, gun show promoter, or gun | 20 | | show vendor with the number. | 21 | | (d) Approvals issued by the Department of State Police for | 22 | | the purchase of a firearm are valid for 30 days from the date | 23 | | of issue.

improving or liquidating a personal firearms | 23 | | collection; however, proof of
profit shall not be required | 24 | | as to a person who engages in the regular and
repetitive | 25 | | purchase and disposition of firearms for criminal purposes | 26 | | or

This paragraph (k) does not apply to | 11 | | the transfer of a firearm to a person who is exempt from | 12 | | the requirement of possessing a Firearm Owner's | 13 | | Identification Card under Section 2 of the Firearm Owners | 14 | | Identification Card Act. For the purposes of this Section, | 15 | | a currently valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card | 16 | | means (i) a Firearm Owner's Identification Card that has | 17 | | not expired or (ii) an approval number issued in accordance | 18 | | with subsection (a-10) of subsection 3 or Section 3.1 of | 19 | | the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act shall be proof | 20 | | that the Firearm Owner's Identification Card was valid. | 21 | | (1) In addition to the other requirements of this | 22 | | paragraph (k), all persons who are not federally | 23 | | licensed firearms dealers must also have complied with | 24 | | subsection (a-10) of Section 3 of the Firearm Owners | 25 | | Identification Card Act by determining the validity of | 26 | | a purchaser's Firearm Owner's Identification Card. |

being entitled to the possession of a firearm, | 9 | | delivers the
firearm, knowing it to have been stolen or | 10 | | converted. It may be inferred that
a person who possesses a | 11 | | firearm with knowledge that its serial number has
been | 12 | | removed or altered has knowledge that the firearm is stolen | 13 | | or converted. | 14 | | (B) Paragraph (h) of subsection (A) does not include | 15 | | firearms sold within 6
months after enactment of Public
Act | 16 | | 78-355 (approved August 21, 1973, effective October 1, 1973), | 17 | | nor is any
firearm legally owned or
possessed by any citizen or | 18 | | purchased by any citizen within 6 months after the
enactment of | 19 | | Public Act 78-355 subject

Public Act 78-355 | 21 | | shall be construed to prohibit the gift or trade of
any firearm | 22 | | if that firearm was legally held or acquired within 6 months | 23 | | after
the enactment of that Public Act.
