Hi Rashard and welcome. No, the Mossberg 990 AfterShock is restricted or cannot be shipped to Illinois by major firearms retailers. Cheers and stay safe!

No, UPC 015813830010 is not legal for purchase or transfer in Cook County, Illinois. This UPC corresponds to the Mossberg 990 AfterShock, which is a 12-gauge semi-automatic security firearm. Under both the Cook County Blair Holt Assault Weapons Ban and the statewide Protect Illinois Communities Act (PICA), a semi-automatic shotgun or "other" firearm with its specific configurations is heavily restricted. Specifically, statutory bans prohibit semi-automatic shotguns or tactical firearms that feature a detachable magazine or a pistol grip (such as the bird's head AfterShock grip). Because the Mossberg 990 Aftershock is a semi-automatic tactical platform lacking a traditional shoulder stock while utilizing a pistol-style recoil grip, it fails to comply with the local and state restrictions governing assault weapons.
