Bill Summary

AN ACT to repeal chapter 1 of the laws of 2013, amending the criminal procedure law and other laws relating to suspension and revocation of firearms licenses; private sale or disposal of firearms, rifles or shotguns and establishing a minimum age to possess a firearm relating to gun control

AI Summary

This bill proposes to repeal Chapter 1 of the laws of 2013, which previously established regulations around firearms licenses, private firearm sales, and minimum age requirements for firearm possession. By completely repealing this earlier law, the bill would effectively remove the existing gun control provisions that were put in place in 2013, potentially returning the state's firearms regulations to their status prior to that year. The bill is straightforward in its intent, consisting of two sections: the first explicitly repealing the 2013 law, and the second stating that the act will take effect immediately upon passage. While the bill does not introduce new regulations, its significance lies in its wholesale elimination of the previous gun control measures, which would likely have substantial implications for firearms licensing, sales, and age restrictions in the state.
