26 | profit" means that the
intent
underlying the sale or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | disposition of firearms is predominantly one of
obtaining | ||||||
2 | livelihood and pecuniary gain, as opposed to other intents, | ||||||
3 | such as
improving or liquidating a personal firearms | ||||||
4 | collection; however, proof of
profit shall not be required | ||||||
5 | as to a person who engages in the regular and
repetitive | ||||||
6 | purchase and disposition of firearms for criminal purposes | ||||||
7 | or
terrorism.
| ||||||
8 | (k) Sells or transfers ownership of a firearm to a | ||||||
9 | person who does not display to the seller or transferor of | ||||||
10 | the firearm either: (1) a currently valid Firearm Owner's | ||||||

15 | firearm that has previously been issued in the transferee's | ||||||
16 | name by the

18 | the transfer of a firearm to a person who is exempt from | ||||||
19 | the requirement of possessing a Firearm Owner's | ||||||

21 | Identification Card Act. For the purposes of this Section, | ||||||

2 | (1) In addition to the other requirements of this | ||||||
3 | paragraph (k), all persons who are not federally | ||||||
4 | licensed firearms dealers must also have complied with | ||||||
5 | subsection (a-10) of Section 3 of the Firearm Owners | ||||||
6 | Identification Card Act by determining the validity of | ||||||
7 | a purchaser's Firearm Owner's Identification Card. | ||||||
8 | (2) All sellers or transferors who have complied | ||||||
9 | with the requirements of subparagraph (1) of this | ||||||
10 | paragraph (k) shall not be liable for damages in any | ||||||
11 | civil action arising from the use or misuse by the | ||||||

14 | or transferor. | ||||||
15 | (l) Not
being entitled to the possession of a firearm, | ||||||
16 | delivers the
firearm, knowing it to have been stolen or | ||||||
17 | converted. It may be inferred that
a person who possesses a | ||||||
18 | firearm with knowledge that its serial number has
been | ||||||
19 | removed or altered has knowledge that the firearm is stolen | ||||||
20 | or converted. | ||||||
21 | (B) Paragraph (h) of subsection (A) does not include | ||||||
22 | firearms sold within 6
months after enactment of Public

| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | provisions of that Public Act. Nothing in
Public Act 78-355 | ||||||
2 | shall be construed to prohibit the gift or trade of
any firearm | ||||||
3 | if that firearm was legally held or acquired within 6 months | ||||||
4 | after
the enactment of that Public Act.
