Bill Summary

A BILL To require face-to-face purchases of ammunition, to require licensing of ammunition dealers, and to require reporting regarding bulk purchases of ammunition.

AI Summary

This bill, titled the "Stop Online Ammunition Sales Act of 2026," aims to regulate ammunition sales by requiring face-to-face transactions for all purchases, meaning ammunition cannot be bought online or shipped directly to individuals. It also mandates that dealers who sell ammunition must be licensed, a process that involves verifying the buyer's identity through a photograph on a valid identification document in person. Furthermore, the bill introduces a reporting requirement for licensed dealers who sell or otherwise dispose of more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition to an unlicensed person within a five-business-day period; these reports must be submitted to the Attorney General and relevant state or local law enforcement agencies. These provisions are intended to enhance oversight and tracking of ammunition sales.
