Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds requirements for marking previously unmarked firearms (including 3D-printed or plastic ones) with serial numbers obtained from the state, prohibits their sale/transfer except to law enforcement (which must destroy them), creates criminal offenses for noncompliance, and bans manufacture/possession of 3D-printed firearm parts or firearms containing them. All provisions fall under firearms/weapon-accessory-restrictions and uniformly restrict the topic axis by imposing new limits on making, owning, and transferring such items.
