Do you have any experience with firearms? If not I would look into a local training site/range and recommend starting with a 9mm pistol. Also it looks like you need to apply for a FOID.
Illinois law requires residents to have a Firearm Owners Identification Card (FOID) to possess a firearm or ammunition. FOID card holders (without a CCL) can legally carry unloaded firearms that are enclosed in a case. You must be 21 years old to apply and have a FOID card.
Yeah a license to buy ammo? Didn't realize they had locked down hard in IL like that. I've only lived in freedom states and raised an eyebrow when I read that.
Imagine growing up here and how surreal it is when you go on a road trip and discover elsewhere you can buy ammo at the gas station counter without even getting asked for ID.

That's a shit ton of infringement right there.

You can get a FOID if under 21 with parental approval documentation
