Bill > HF3407

This bill aims to enhance public safety by prohibiting the sale and possession of "ghost guns," which are firearms lacking a unique serial number and are often undetectable by metal detectors or can be easily modified to be so, or are manufactured by individuals not licensed as federal firearms manufacturers. It also restricts the 3D printing of firearms to federally licensed manufacturers and prohibits the distribution of digital design files for 3D-printed guns. The bill mandates that all firearms must have a unique serial number, and individuals possessing firearms without one have a grace period to either get them serialized by a federal firearms licensee, remove them from the state, render them inoperable, or surrender them to law enforcement. Furthermore, individuals are limited to assembling no more than three firearms per year, and any firearm assembled without a serial number must be serialized by a federal firearms licensee within ten days. The Commissioner of Public Safety is required to issue a public notice about these provisions by August 1, 2026, and an existing law regarding the alteration of firearm serial numbers is repealed.
