Summary
The Prevent Illegal Gun Resales Act increases the fees that firearms dealers must pay to obtain and keep their licenses. It also requires dealers to certify secure storage, submit detailed business‑practice plans, and follow new Attorney General regulations aimed at stopping illegal diversions and straw‑purchases. Dealers who fail to meet these standards could face civil fines up to $5,000 and possible license suspension.
