Stage: Committee · step 2 of 6
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill only amends penalties under 18 USC 924 for violations of 922(u) (theft from FFLs) by raising the maximum term, adding mandatory minimums tied to burglary/robbery, defining terms, and covering attempts; it does not alter access to, ownership of, or restrictions on firearms themselves.
