This video explains Illinois's "assault weapons" ban and highlights that certain semi-automatic rifles, like the Ruger Mini-14 Ranch, can be legally purchased and owned without registration if they do not meet the state's definition of an "assault weapon." The presenter emphasizes that firearms lacking features such as threaded barrels, pistol grips, and folding stocks, and often equipped with lower-capacity magazines, are compliant. Obtaining a FOID card is necessary for purchase.
