Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends Penal Code 46.06 to prohibit transfers of firearms to persons under 21 (previously under 18 for handguns only, with the age now raised and extended to all firearms), to intoxicated persons, and to recent felony convicts; it also adds an affirmative defense and exception for official duties. These changes add new restrictions on who may legally receive firearms, with no provisions expanding access or preempting rules.
