Summary
The bill amends Utah's firearm purchase rules by eliminating the mandate that Federal Firearms Licensees use a specific Bureau of Criminal Identification form when selling a gun. It also lengthens the period the bureau can retain background‑check records from 20 to 30 days and updates related technical language. The changes affect dealers, federal licensees, and buyers who must undergo background checks.
