Is it legal for a FOID cardholder to lend a firearm to another FOID cardholder?

Yes
No
Only within the same household
Only for hunting purposes

The correct answer is: Yes

FOID (Firearm Owners Identification) cards are issued by the state of Illinois to individuals who are legally allowed to possess firearms. A FOID cardholder is someone who has been approved for a FOID card and possesses one. It is legal for a FOID cardholder to lend a firearm to another FOID cardholder, even if they are not part of the same household or using it for hunting purposes. Option B is incorrect because it states that it is not legal for a FOID cardholder to lend a firearm to another FOID cardholder, which is the opposite of the correct answer. Option C is incorrect because while it is legal for FOID cardholders within the same household to lend each other firearms, it is also legal for them to lend firearms to other FOID cardholders outside of their household. Option D is incorrect because while it is legal for FOID cardholders to lend firearms for hunting purposes, they can also lend firearms for other purposes as long as the other person is also a FOID cardholder.
