Bill > S08586

This bill requires a criminal history background check for the purchase of a three-dimensional printer capable of creating firearms, and prohibits the sale of such a printer to a person who would be disqualified from possessing a firearm based on their criminal history. The bill amends the General Business Law to establish this requirement and authorize the Division of Criminal Justice Services to conduct the background checks and notify the seller of the determination. The bill defines a "three-dimensional printer" as a computer or machine capable of producing a three-dimensional object from a digital model.
