The Illinois Firearm Owners Identification program has a heap of problems.
The findings are in a report released by the Illinois Auditor General, who said some of those problems put public safety at risk.
The report said Illinois State Police sometimes don't know if the applicant has a disqualifying mental health condition.
In addition, the state is supposed to retrieve the gun licenses once they're expired, but the audit found 70% of revoked registration cards never get back to the police.
