Which of these is a responsibility of a FOID card holder?
Carrying the firearm openly when in public
Reporting lost or stolen firearms within 10 days
Teaching firearms safety to family members
Conducting background checks on potential firearm buyers
The correct answer is: Reporting lost or stolen firearms within 10 days
A FOID card holder is not responsible for carrying the firearm openly when in public as this could pose a potential threat to themselves and others. It is not their role to enforce laws or ordinances related to firearms in public. They are also not responsible for teaching firearms safety to family members as this is a personal choice and responsibility for each individual. Conducting background checks on potential firearm buyers is the responsibility of a licensed firearm seller, not of a FOID card holder. Therefore, the correct responsibility of a FOID card holder is reporting lost or stolen firearms within 10 days, as they are required to do so by law. This helps prevent these firearms from falling into the wrong hands and potentially causing harm to others.
