Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends Penal Law 400.00(11)(a) to add convictions for failure to safely store firearms (sections 265.45 and 265.50, which address storage to prevent access by minors) as grounds for license revocation. This increases restrictions on license holders by linking storage violations to loss of the ability to possess or carry firearms.
