Bill > SB554

This bill repeals RSA 507-D:6, which is a New Hampshire state law that previously limited legal liability for certain design features of firearms. By repealing this specific statute, the bill would remove existing legal protections that currently shield firearms manufacturers from some types of liability related to the design of their weapons. The repeal would potentially make it easier for plaintiffs to bring lawsuits against firearm manufacturers by eliminating a statutory limitation that previously restricted such legal actions. The bill includes a standard effective date provision, specifying that the law will go into effect 60 days after its passage, which provides manufacturers and legal practitioners a brief transition period to understand and adapt to the new legal framework.
