Bill Summary
A BILL To address the importation and proliferation of machinegun conversion devices.
AI Summary
This bill aims to address the importation and trafficking of machinegun conversion devices, which are parts designed to convert a weapon into a machinegun. The legislation requires the Attorney General, Secretary of Homeland Security, and Secretary of the Treasury to develop a comprehensive strategy within 120 days to prevent and intercept these devices, focusing on improving federal law enforcement's ability to detect, seize, and trace such devices at ports of entry and domestically, including those produced through 3D printing. The strategy also emphasizes improving coordination between federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies, developing training programs to help identify these devices, and collecting data on their origins. The bill mandates periodic reporting to congressional committees about the strategy's implementation and requires the Attorney General to include information about machinegun conversion devices in the annual firearms trafficking report, specifying the number of crimes involving these devices and their country of origin. Additionally, the bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to allow forfeiture of proceeds from illegal machine gun trafficking, broadening the legal mechanisms to combat the proliferation of these dangerous device conversions.
