Bill > H2715

This bill proposes to modify the definition of "assault-style firearm" in a previously enacted law (Chapter 135 of the Acts of 2024) by removing two specific subsections: subsection 121(a)(v) and subsection 121(b)(iv). While the specific details of these subsections are not provided in the bill text, the action suggests a narrowing of the legal definition of what constitutes an assault-style firearm. This could potentially mean that certain types of firearms or specific features that were previously classified as assault-style weapons would no longer fall under that category. The bill appears to be making technical amendments to existing firearms legislation, potentially reducing restrictions or changing the scope of regulated weapons. Without more context about the original law, the precise impact of these deletions cannot be fully ascertained, but the bill represents a modification to the legal classification of firearms in the jurisdiction.
