Blocks gun sales from licensed dealers until background checks are fully completed.
This bill would stop licensed gun dealers from selling a firearm until a background check is fully finished. Currently, sales can go through after 3 business days, or up to 10 business days, even if the check isn't done. This change would mean individuals purchasing firearms might wait longer for their firearm, as there would be no time limit for the check to be completed.
Today, licensed firearms dealers can sell a gun after 3 business days if the background check system hasn't responded, and there's a maximum 10-business-day waiting period. After this bill, dealers would have to wait until the background check is fully completed, no matter how long it takes, before selling a firearm.
