Are non-residents of Illinois required to have a FOID card to transport a firearm within the state?

Yes, always
No, never
Yes, if the firearm is not broken down in a non-functioning state
No, if they are passing through the state with no intention to stay

The correct answer is: Yes, if the firearm is not broken down in a non-functioning state

Non-residents of Illinois who wish to transport a firearm within the state are required to have a FOID card, unless the firearm is broken down in a non-functioning state. Option A is incorrect because the statement does not hold true in all cases, as non-residents are only exempt from the requirement if the firearm is broken down. Option B is also incorrect, as non-residents are still subject to federal laws and regulations on firearm transportation. Option D is partially correct, as non-residents are exempt from the requirement if they are passing through the state with no intention to stay, but that only applies if the firearm is broken down. Therefore, option C is the correct answer as it provides the most specific and accurate information.
