Bill Summary

An Act relating to the definition of 'prohibited weapon.'

AI Summary

This bill amends Alaska Statute 11.61.200(h)(1) to expand the definition of "prohibited weapon" by adding a new category: a device designed, made, or adapted to convert a handgun into a firearm capable of firing multiple shots automatically with a single trigger pull. This addition clarifies and strengthens existing prohibitions on certain types of weapons, including explosives, silencers, automatic firearms, and short-barreled rifles and shotguns, by specifically including devices that enable such modifications to handguns. The bill also states that this updated definition applies to offenses committed on or after its effective date.
