Bill Summary
This bill would require retired law enforcement officers to qualify in the use of a firearm once per year rather than every six months. Under current law, a person who has retired in good standing after serving as a regularly employed, full-time law enforcement officer may carry a firearm provided the person: (1) is 75 years of age or younger; (2) is not subject to any of the disabilities which would disqualify the retired officer from possessing or carrying a firearm; and (3) semi-annually qualifies in the use of a firearm. This bill would require the retired law enforcement officer to qualify in the use of a firearm once per year rather than semi-annually.
