TINLEY PARK, IL - OCTOBER 18: A box of 500 .22 cal. bullets are offered for sale at Freddie Bear Sports on October 18, 2012 in Tinley Park, Illinois. Facing a $267.5 million fiscal 2013 budget gap, Cook County, which includes the City of Chicago and suburbs has proposed a tax of 5 cents per bullet and $25 on each firearm sold at gun and sporting goods stores in the county. The box of 500 .22 bullets, which retails for about $30 at Freddie Bear Sports, would cost nearly double with sales tax and the proposed "bullet tax" included. Fred Lutger, who has owned Freddie Bear Sports for 35 years, is concerned with the impact the tax will have on his store which is located about 2 miles from the county line.
