Reforms to Federal Firearms Licensing and Enforcement.

This act changes how the federal government regulates firearms licenses. It aims to make it easier for firearms businesses to operate and protect licensees from excessive penalties, while still ensuring public safety. Citizens operating such businesses can expect clearer rules and greater legal protection.
Key points
Introduces graduated penalties for violations, focusing on rectifying issues rather than immediate license revocation.
Establishes clear definitions for "willful" violations, making it harder to accuse licensees of unintentional errors.
Grants licensees more time to liquidate firearms inventory after license expiration or revocation, protecting their business interests.
Requires the federal government to establish and publicize inspection and investigation standards, increasing transparency and predictability for licensees.
