This is of course happening on purpose. It is a covert form of gun control for law abiding citizens. If you legally can’t get a permit or the FOID card…then you cant have a gun. It is along the same lines of over taxing ammunition and driving the costs so high making it hard for some to purchase the amount of rounds they want.
