New Firearm Marking and Sales Control Rules
This act introduces new requirements for marking firearms with additional, hidden serial numbers and expands the definition of a firearm to include parts for self-assembly. It also changes rules for storing background check records for gun buyers and mandates regular inventory checks for dealers. The goal is to hinder illegal gun trafficking and enhance public safety.
Key points
All newly manufactured firearms will require an additional, hidden serial number, visible only in infrared light or inside the firearm, to aid in tracking.
The definition of a firearm will expand to include parts that can be easily assembled into a weapon, including 3D-printed components, making 'ghost guns' harder to produce.
Background check records for gun buyers will be stored for 180 days instead of being immediately destroyed, which may assist in investigations.
Licensed firearm dealers will be required to conduct regular physical checks of their inventory to prevent theft and illegal sales.
