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 license or permit from another state to carry a handgun in Illinois, as long as the training requirements in the other state are substantially similar to Illinois' requirements or if there is a reciprocal agreement with a contiguous state. The bill also allows non-residents who establish legal residence in Illinois to use their out-of-state license or permit for up to 90 days after establishing residency. The bill requires the Illinois State Police to enter into a reciprocal agreement with contiguous states that recognize Illinois concealed carry licenses.
