Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends Penal Code 46.06 to create a new offense prohibiting transfer of certain semiautomatic rifles to recipients under 21 (with exceptions for military, peace officers, and temporary loans in limited circumstances), raising the age limit for those specific firearms from the prior 18-year limit that applied to other firearms; this restricts access under the firearms topic but does not address background checks, transgender issues, abortion, or immigration enforcement.
