AI Summary
This bill, titled the "Combating Illegal Gun Trafficking Act", creates the Firearm Dealer License Certification Act. The key provisions are:
- Requires firearm dealers to obtain a certificate of license from the Illinois Department of State Police before engaging in the business of selling, leasing, or transferring firearms. Dealers must submit a copy of their Federal Firearms License and other information to receive the certificate.
- Imposes various requirements on certified dealers, including maintaining video surveillance, alarm systems, safe storage plans, and electronic inventory records. Dealers and their employees must also receive annual training.
- Establishes fees and penalties for non-compliance, and gives the Department authority to investigate, inspect, and discipline certified dealers.
- Requires the Department to make public data on firearms used in crimes and to study firearms trafficking patterns.
- Amends the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act to require private firearm transfers to be recorded and reported to the Department.
The overall goal is to increase regulation and oversight of firearm dealers in Illinois to combat illegal gun trafficking.
