AI Summary

This bill limits the application of the "SAFE Act" to the counties of Kings, Queens, Richmond, New York, and Bronx. The key provisions of the bill are: - It amends various laws to limit the firearm-related requirements, such as license suspension, revocation, and firearm surrender, to only those counties. - It repeals the statewide license and record database created under the original SAFE Act. - It creates exceptions for individuals residing in the specified counties to request that their license application information not be publicly disclosed. - It requires registration of certain assault weapons and large capacity ammunition feeding devices only for those residing in the specified counties. - It establishes additional requirements for the sale and transfer of ammunition specifically for those counties. The overall effect of the bill is to scale back the statewide application of the SAFE Act's firearm regulations and restrictions, and instead confine them to the five counties identified in the bill.
