↓Restricts gun accessmodel confidence 80%
Imposes new restrictions on acquiring 3D printers that can produce firearms or components by requiring background checks and prohibiting sales to those disqualified from firearm licenses.
No retailer shall sell any three-dimensional printer capable of printing a firearm unless the division of criminal justice services provides written notification of the determination under this subdivision.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds a new section to the general business law that mandates criminal history background checks specifically for buyers of 3D printers capable of producing firearms or firearm components, and bars sales to those who would be disqualified from a firearm license. This directly addresses firearms purchase background checks and weapon-accessory restrictions by limiting access to tools for making firearms.
