I'm going to assume the pump versions of the Escort BullTac shotguns are legal in Illinois but are the semi-auto versions like the Escort BullTac Semi-Auto 12ga 18" Bullpup Tactical Shotgun 5+1 - Blue/Black, 18" Barrel, 5+1 Rounds, Synthetic, 3" Chamber, Black Stock also legal? Or will I have to wait for the Supremes to finally overturn this ridiculous ban?

Question

Hi David, you are correct, the pump is ok, the semi-auto is not. A semi-auto shotgun cannot have a pistol grip.

James G. · Answer

Hi David and welcome. Correct assumption, Pump Action Shotguns are not restricted and can have features that are banned on Semi-Auto Action Shotguns in the State of IL. Cheers, stay safe and enjoy!

Jason L. · Answer

Yes, you are correct in that pump shotguns do not carry the same restrictions that their semi-auto counterparts hold.
