Ban on .50 Caliber Rifles and Stricter Gun Sale Reporting Requirements.
This law bans the import, sale, manufacture, and transfer of new .50 caliber rifles for civilians. Current owners must register their existing rifles within 12 months under the National Firearms Act, though this initial registration is fee-free. The law also tightens reporting rules for firearm dealers by including rifles in multiple sales reports and removes liability protection for manufacturers who knowingly arm foreign narcotics traffickers.
