Bill > SB00495

This bill aims to modify existing Connecticut state law by prohibiting firearm sellers from being required to send a copy of the sale or transfer of firearms form to the local police authority in the jurisdiction where the firearm purchaser resides. The proposed change would eliminate what the bill describes as a "redundant requirement" for documentation transfer, potentially reducing administrative burden on firearm sellers. By preventing mandatory reporting to local police authorities, the bill seeks to streamline the firearms sales process and remove an additional layer of bureaucratic documentation. The bill appears to be focused on simplifying the administrative procedures surrounding firearm sales while maintaining other existing regulatory requirements. The proposed amendment would modify section 29-33 of the general statutes, suggesting this is a targeted, specific change to current firearms sales reporting practices in Connecticut.
