What happens if you are caught with a firearm and no valid FOID card?

  1. A warning for the first offense

  2. Your firearm may be confiscated

  3. You may face legal penalties

  4. Both B and C

The correct answer is: Both B and C

This means that if you are caught with a firearm and do not have a valid FOID card, your firearm may be confiscated and you may also face legal penalties. It is important to note that this may vary depending on the specific laws and regulations in your area, so it is always best to make sure you have a valid FOID card before possessing a firearm. Option A is incorrect because it implies that there will be no consequences for having a firearm without a valid FOID card, which is not true. Option B alone is not completely correct, as it does not address any potential legal penalties. Option C alone also does not fully explain the consequences, as it does not mention the possibility of confiscation. Therefore, the correct answer is option D, which combines both potential consequences.
