Summary

The bill reinstates sentencing guidelines that were removed in 2004 for people with prior felony firearm convictions, setting higher penalties for unlawful weapon possession. It also creates new aggravated possession offenses based on factors such as loaded weapons, lack of a concealed‑carry license, prior juvenile adjudication, or recent protection orders. The changes apply to offenses committed after the law takes effect and remove any sunset provision.
