Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds auto-sear/switch devices to the Penal Code §46.05 list of items whose knowing possession, manufacture, transport, repair or sale is a felony, thereby imposing a new prohibition on these handgun-modification accessories. The deletion of 'or' is purely grammatical to accommodate the new subparagraph and has no substantive effect on the law's reach.
