Why the model tagged it this way: The bill creates a voluntary self-exclusion mechanism that adds individuals to the federal NICS background-check system to block firearm purchases or transfers, directly restricting access to firearms via expanded background-check enforcement. It also creates related procedures for waivers, notifications to third parties, dealer reporting, and license suspensions, all under the firearms topic but without changing other specific subtags like carry, red-flag orders, or preemption.
