Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds mandatory firearm and ammunition surrender, seizure, storage, transfer, and return procedures tied to domestic-violence protective injunctions (a form of ERPO/red-flag order), plus safe-storage requirements for third parties and owners to prevent respondent access; it also increases penalties for repeat violations of such orders. All changes impose new restrictions on firearm possession and access for persons under these orders.
