Summary
The bill restores the 2024 ban on binary (trigger‑activator) firearms and the updated straw‑purchase penalties, and it eliminates the affirmative defense that family or household members could use when charged with illegally transferring a gun to someone who cannot legally possess it. It applies to anyone who sells, gives, or otherwise transfers a firearm to an ineligible person, including relatives, and to owners of binary triggers. The changes take effect the day after the bill is enacted.
