The purpose of this legislation is to enhance the security measures that federally licensed firearms importers, manufacturers, and dealers must implement to protect their firearms inventory, business records, and premises. It aims to reduce the risk of theft and improve accountability in the firearms industry. Key provisions of the law include specific requirements for how firearms must be stored when businesses are not open. Licensed dealers must secure each firearm using either a hardened steel rod or store them in a locked fireproof safe, gun cabinet, or vault.
