Bill > HR4535

This bill, known as the "Make American Guns Again Act of 2025" or the "MAGA Act", requires the Secretary of Defense to conduct a comprehensive study on small arms and light weapons used by the U.S. Armed Forces that are either manufactured outside the United States or produced by foreign-owned subsidiaries within the U.S. Within 180 days of the act's enactment, the Secretary must submit a report to Congress and the President detailing the findings of this study, with specific recommendations for procuring small arms and light weapons that are entirely manufactured in the United States by U.S.-owned and controlled entities. The bill uses the standard Department of Defense definition of "small arms and light weapons" as outlined in the Code of Federal Regulations, which typically includes portable weapons designed for military, law enforcement, and self-defense purposes. The primary goal of this legislation appears to be promoting domestic manufacturing of military weaponry and reducing dependence on foreign-produced or foreign-owned weapon systems.
