transfer, or cause to be transferred, any firearm, | 9 | | firearm ammunition, stun gun, or taser to any person within | 10 | | this State unless the
transferee with whom he deals displays a | 11 | | currently valid Firearm Owner's
Identification Card which has | 12 | | previously been issued in his name by the
Department of State | 13 | | Police under the provisions of this Act. In addition,
all | 14 | | firearm, stun gun, and taser transfers by federally licensed | 15 | | firearm dealers are subject
to Section 3.1. | 16 | | (a-5) Any person who is not a federally licensed firearm |

|
| 1 | | dealer and who desires to transfer or sell a firearm while that | 2 | | person is on the grounds of a gun show must, before selling or | 3 | | transferring the firearm, request the Department of State | 4 | | Police to conduct a background check on the prospective | 5 | | recipient of the firearm in accordance with Section 3.1.
| 6 | | (b) Any person within this State who transfers or causes to | 7 | | be
transferred any firearm, stun gun, or taser shall keep a | 8 | | record of such transfer for a period
of 10 years from the date | 9 | | of transfer. Such record shall contain the date
of the | 10 | | transfer; the description, serial number or other information
| 11 | | identifying the firearm, stun gun, or taser if no serial number | 12 | | is available; and, if the
transfer was completed within this | 13 | | State, the transferee's Firearm Owner's
Identification Card | 14 | | number. On or after January 1, 2006, the record shall contain | 15 | | the date of application for transfer of the firearm. On demand | 16 | | of a peace officer such transferor
shall produce for inspection | 17 | | such record of transfer. If the transfer or sale took place at | 18 | | a gun show, the record shall include the unique identification | 19 | | number. Failure to record the unique identification number is a | 20 | | petty offense.
| 21 | | (b-1) The transferor of a firearm, stun gun, or taser must | 22 | | furnish a record of the transfer, within 10 days of the | 23 | | transfer, to the Department of State Police. The transferee | 24 | | must furnish a record of the transfer and a copy of his or her | 25 | | valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card to the Department of | 26 | | State Police within 10 days of the transfer.

|
| 1 | | State Police must maintain the record for a period of 10 years. | 2 | | (b-5) Any resident may purchase ammunition from a person | 3 | | within or outside of Illinois if shipment is by United States | 4 | | mail or by a private express carrier authorized by federal law | 5 | | to ship ammunition. Any resident purchasing ammunition within | 6 | | or outside the State of Illinois must provide the seller with a | 7 | | copy of his or her valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card | 8 | | and either his or her Illinois driver's license or Illinois | 9 | | State Identification Card prior to the shipment of the | 10 | | ammunition. The ammunition may be shipped only to an address on | 11 | | either of those 2 documents. | 12 | | (c) The provisions of this Section regarding the transfer | 13 | | of firearm
ammunition shall not apply to those persons | 14 | | specified in paragraph (b) of
