That would be breaking the law and, as we have heard many times, laws deter crimes and gun owners are law abiding. So, he can't take his gun.
Never once said I recommended they do, they do of their own volition.

Firearm Owner's Frequently Asked Questions
How do I transport a firearm through an Illinois community with an ordinance that prohibits firearms or handguns?
Illinois' Unlawful Use of Weapons law does not preempt local ordinances from banning firearms. Persons carrying or transporting firearms through such communities could be subject to local firearm ordinances. It is recommended that you contact local authorities regarding their firearm ordinances.
According to the new Chicago handgun ordinance, you may travel through the city, while engaged in interstate commerce (FOPA). They even put the limit at 24 hours, so an overnight stay would conceivably be legal.
Here's the text of that section:
8-20-090 Interstate Transport of Firearms
It shall not be a violation of this chapter if a person transporting a firearm or ammunition while engaged in interstate travel is in compliance with 18 U.S.C.A 926A. There shall be a rebuttable presumption that any person within the city for more than 24 hours is not engaged in interstate travel, and is subject to the provisions of this chapter.
That said, I wouldn't want to be the test case.
Sure sure if you believe that I have a small bridge I want to sell you.

While it (passing thru Chicago with gun) is LEGAL (due to fed. law) and you and I know it is LEGAL bet you are still going to end up like that guy who got stopped in TN. His stuff got taken and it's going to take a legal battle for him to get his stuff back that was stolen in the first place.
