Provides that, should provisions regarding manufacture, possession, delivery, sale, and purchase of assault weapons, .50 caliber rifles, and .50 caliber cartridges be found to be unconstitutional by a court with all appeals exhausted or expired, the Illinois State Police shall immediately and permanently destroy or have destroyed each endorsement affidavit and all information collected from the endorsement affidavit in possession of the Illinois State Police and any law enforcement agency.
AI Summary
This bill mandates that if the laws concerning the manufacture, possession, delivery, sale, and purchase of assault weapons, .50 caliber rifles, and .50 caliber cartridges are declared unconstitutional by a court, and all appeals are exhausted or expired, the Illinois State Police must immediately and permanently destroy all endorsement affidavits and any related information collected from these affidavits that are in their possession or held by any law enforcement agency. An "endorsement affidavit" is a sworn statement required for individuals to lawfully possess certain firearms that would otherwise be prohibited, after the effective date of the law. This provision ensures that if the underlying laws are struck down, the data collected from individuals registering these firearms is also permanently eliminated.
