AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 11 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO FIREARMS.
Signed by Governor
Summary
The bill adds a definition of “permanently inoperable” and creates a clear compliance path for owners of unfinished firearm frames, receivers, or complete firearms that lack serial numbers. Owners who possessed such items before the law takes effect must either have them serialized by a federally licensed dealer or manufacturer, or render them permanently inoperable within six months. The law also clarifies that temporary transfers for serialization are not violations and requires dealers to keep federal‑required records.
