Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends the Penal Code to broaden the state offense of reckless discharge of a firearm to more municipalities and counties by lowering the population thresholds, increasing the areas where the prohibition applies and thus restricting firearm discharge in more places. It also retains existing language on local authority without alteration.
