Bill > S1076

This bill aims to combat the illegal 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 of enactment to prevent and intercept these devices. The strategy includes enhancing federal law enforcement's ability to detect and seize such devices at ports of entry, improving coordination between federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies, and developing training programs to help identify these devices. The bill mandates that these agencies collect and analyze data on machinegun conversion device origins, including those produced domestically through methods like 3D printing. Additionally, the bill requires periodic reporting to congressional committees about the strategy's progress and amends the Internal Revenue Code to allow for the forfeiture of proceeds from illegal machinegun trafficking. The Attorney General is also instructed to include specific information about machinegun conversion devices in the annual firearms trafficking report, such as the number of crimes involving these devices and their country of origin.
