Short description: 
FIREARMS-SALES & CARDS                                                     

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the  Firearm  Owners  Identification  Card  Act.   Exempts      
   nonresidents  who  are  competing in biathlon sporting events from the      
   requirement of having a Firearm Owner's Identification Card  in  their      
   possession.   Provides that if the Department of State Police fails to      
   respond to an inquiry about an applicant for purchase of  a  firearm's      
   criminal  history  record  information  within the waiting period, the      
   dealer must complete the transfer of the  firearm  to  the  applicant.      
   Provides  that  the  transfer  of firearm requirements relating to the      
   transferee displaying to the transferor his  or  her  Firearm  Owner's      
   Identification  Card  do not apply to temporary or incidental loans of      
   firearms.  Provides that $2 of  the  application  fee  for  a  Firearm      
   Owner's  Identification  Card (now one dollar is deposited in the Fund      
   and one dollar in the General Revenue Fund) must be deposited  in  the      
   Firearm  Owner's Notification Fund. Provides that each Firearm Owner's      
   Identification Card issued on or after September 1, 1999  must  boldly      
   and  conspicuously  display  an authorization number from the National      
   Instant Criminal  Background  Check  System.   Provides  that  Firearm      
   Owner's  Identification Cards are valid forms of identification in the      
   same manner as driver's licenses and  Illinois  Identification  Cards.      
   Effective immediately.                                                      
          FISCAL NOTE (Illinois State Police)                                  
          There would be a fiscal impact on the Ill. State Police of           
          approximately $642,500 for computer and related FOID system          
          enhancements.
