Not much of a difference. You can still carry but magazine capacity can't be over ten rounds. But you're right it can vary by city.
Some cities have additional restrictions. Pretty sure Chicago is not the same as rest of the State.
Bill and Rainy make good points. To Rainys point, Illinois is the same way. The only state permit Illinois recognize is it's own. But multiple states recognize Illinois permit. It can get complicated. I believe it's the Utah and Arizona ccw permit that if you get you can carry in something like 40 states. You actually could get an Illinois ccw as an out of state applicant if you want to pay 300 dollars and a 6 month minimum waiting period. But in the grand scheme of things tools like a hammer, flashlight, tire thumper would do just fine.

TruckingTruth was founded by Brett Aquila (that's me!), a 15 year truck driving veteran, in January 2007. After 15 years on the road I wanted to help people understand the trucking industry and everything that came with the career and lifestyle of an over the road trucker. We'll help you make the right choices and prepare for a great start to your trucking career.
Becoming A Truck Driver is a dream we've all pondered at some point in our lives. We've all wondered if the adventure and challenges of life on the open road would suit us better than the ordinary day to day lives we've always known. At TruckingTruth we'll help you decide if trucking is right for you and help you get your career off to a great start.
