some important news for gun owners in Lawrence and other counties across Illinois.
The state ban on assault weapons and high capacity magazines will remain enforceable after a federal appeals court late last week stayed a ruling from a downstate judge who declared it unconstitutional.
A three judge panel of the 7th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals issued the order extending a stay on the order issued last month by U.S. District Court Judge Stephen McGlynn that found the Protect Illinois Communities Act violated the Second Amendment.
