Bill Summary
AN ACT amending title 13, chapter 31, Arizona Revised Statutes, by adding section 13-3123; appropriating monies; relating to firearms.
AI Summary
This bill establishes a new process for validating concealed weapons permits in Arizona when purchasing firearms. It mandates that the Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS) create and maintain a secure website portal where federally licensed firearms dealers can check the validity of a concealed weapons permit presented by a buyer. If a buyer presents a valid permit, the dealer can proceed with the sale without an additional background check, but if the permit is invalid, the dealer must conduct a standard background check before selling the firearm. Importantly, the bill prohibits DPS from collecting or retaining any data on these permit inquiries to protect the privacy of individuals. The bill also appropriates $300,000 to DPS for the development and maintenance of this website portal.
