Kenneth, yes. Illinois does not restrict the sale or possession of firearms that have been defined as assault weapons, or of magazines that can hold more than a certain number of rounds of ammunition, but some local jurisdictions do restrict them. (To legally possess firearms or ammunition, Illinois residents must have a Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) card, which is issued by the Illinois State Police to any qualified applicant). https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/feeds/state_reg/illinois_restrictions.pdf
it is legal as long as you don't live in one of the Counties/cities that restrict AR style rifles (Cook county, CITY OF AURORA and CITY OF HIGHLAND PARK) https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/feeds/state_reg/illinois_restrictions.pdf
