AI Summary
This bill criminalizes the sale of "ghost guns" - firearms, rifles, or shotguns that do not have a serial number as required by federal law. It also requires gunsmiths to register and serialize any firearms, rifles, shotguns, and unfinished frames or receivers they assemble, manufacture, or build, with some exceptions for routine cleaning and maintenance. The bill creates new felony offenses for the sale of ghost guns based on the number of guns sold. The bill also makes changes to the requirements for obtaining a license as a gunsmith or firearms dealer, including requiring gunsmiths who assemble or manufacture firearms, rifles, or shotguns for non-commercial purposes to obtain a license.
