Why the model tagged it this way: The bill primarily expands the scope of pistol/revolver licenses by converting them into general carry licenses (removing prior premises/employment limits and explicitly authorizing concealed carry) and reinforcing statewide validity over local restrictions; these changes address the firearms/carry and firearms/preemption-sanctuary topics with no provisions on the other listed topics.
