AI Summary

This bill amends the Firearm Concealed Carry Act in Illinois to allow non-residents who are 21 years of age or older and have a valid concealed carry permit or license from another state to carry a handgun in Illinois, as long as the training requirements of the other state are substantially similar to Illinois' requirements or the other state has a reciprocal agreement with Illinois. The bill also provides that a non-resident is subject to the same laws and restrictions as a resident with an Illinois concealed carry license, and that a non-resident who establishes legal residence in Illinois can use their out-of-state permit or license for up to 90 days after establishing residency.
