AI Summary
This bill amends several sections of 1927 PA 372, known as the "Act to regulate and license the selling, purchasing, possessing, and carrying of certain firearms, gas ejecting devices, and electro-muscular disruption devices." Key provisions include:
- Requiring a license to purchase a firearm, with exceptions for certain individuals like law enforcement officers and federally licensed firearms dealers. The bill also clarifies the process for obtaining and transferring these licenses.
- Allowing individuals who inherit firearms to obtain a license within 30 days, and providing guidelines for law enforcement agencies on handling such inherited firearms.
- Exempting certain individuals like retired law enforcement officers and private security personnel from restrictions on carrying concealed pistols in certain locations.
- Requiring federally licensed firearms dealers to provide trigger locks, storage containers, and safety literature when selling firearms, with some exceptions.
- Prohibiting political subdivisions from bringing civil actions against firearm and ammunition manufacturers, with limited exceptions.
The bill also repeals a section related to the state civil infraction for failing to present a pistol license, and includes a tie-bar provision requiring another related bill to also be enacted.
