Bill > HR2418

This bill, the Gun Trafficker Detection Act, requires gun owners who are not licensed firearm dealers to report the theft or loss of a firearm to the Attorney General within 48 hours. The bill also creates a web-based portal for the public to report such thefts or losses, and requires law enforcement agencies to forward these reports to the National Crime Information Center. The bill imposes civil penalties of up to $5,000 for failure to report, and prohibits individuals who have been assessed these penalties multiple times from purchasing firearms for a certain period. Additionally, the bill requires the Attorney General to update the National Instant Criminal Background Check System to account for these new provisions.
