Banning State Mandates for Specific Handgun Safety and Tracking Features
This bill prevents federal, state, and local governments from requiring specific advanced safety or tracking features on handguns sold across the country. If passed, states could not mandate features like microstamping technology, loaded chamber indicators, or mechanisms preventing firing without a magazine. The goal is to standardize firearm design requirements nationwide, potentially affecting the availability and cost of certain handgun models.
Key points
Prohibits states and local governments from mandating specific technical requirements for handguns (e.g., loaded chamber indicators).
Bans the requirement of microstamping technology, which allows for the identification of a firearm based on the shell casing after firing.
Standardizes firearm design regulations by overriding local rules concerning advanced safety features.
