Requires universal background checks for all sales or transfers of firearms
Referred: Emerging Issues(H)
Summary
The bill would make a background check mandatory for any person transferring a firearm, even private sales, unless an exemption applies. Transferors must obtain approval from a state central repository through a licensed dealer or law‑enforcement agency, and violations would be a Class B misdemeanor. The goal is to ensure all firearm buyers are vetted and to close gaps in the current system.
