Bill Summary
For legislation to permit the sale of Olympic competition pistols by licensed firearms dealers. Public Safety and Homeland Security.
AI Summary
This bill would create an "Olympic Competition Firearms Roster" in Massachusetts, exempting certain firearms from existing regulations. Specifically, it would allow licensed firearms dealers to sell pistols designated as "Olympic Competition Pistols" by the California Department of Justice, or those recommended by "USA Shooting," the national governing body for international shooting competitions, as suitable for Olympic pistol events. This new roster would be maintained and updated by the secretary of public safety, at least every two years, based on USA Shooting's recommendations, and no further regulations would apply to the firearms listed on it. This aims to facilitate the availability of firearms specifically designed for competitive shooting.
