Firearm Purchase Amendments

Summary

The measure changes Utah’s firearm purchase process by dropping the mandatory form that dealers had to send to the state bureau, lengthening the bureau’s record‑retention window from 20 to 30 days, and clarifying identification rules. It also exempts concealed‑carry permit holders and off‑duty officers from the background‑check fee, requires dealers to give a safety brochure and a gun lock, and sets reporting duties for prohibited‑purchase cases. The changes take effect on May 6, 2026.
