Bill Summary

Repeal and reenact KRS 65.870 to allow local governments to enact ordinances regulating firearms, ammunition, components of firearms and ammunition, and firearms accessories; amend KRS 65.1591 and 237.115 to conform.

AI Summary

This bill repeals and reenacts a law (KRS 65.870) to allow cities, counties, and other local governments to create their own rules, or "ordinances," about firearms, ammunition, and related accessories, which means local governments will have more power to regulate these items within their jurisdictions. The bill also makes conforming changes to two other laws (KRS 65.1591 and 237.115) to align with this new authority for local governments.
