This bill would increase the maximum prison sentence for stealing or trying to steal a firearm from a licensed seller from 10 years to 20 years. It would also set mandatory minimum prison terms of 3 to 5 years for thefts involving burglary or robbery. This aims to deter such crimes and protect licensed firearm businesses and collectors.
Currently, someone who steals firearms from a licensed seller can face up to 10 years in prison. If this bill passes, the maximum prison sentence would increase to 20 years.
