Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends 18 USC 921 to expand the federal definition of 'State of residence' and 'resident' for purposes of the Gun Control Act, including for military members (duty station and commuting home) and those without physical residence (mailbox state), and treats people with homes in multiple states as residents of each when present there. This has the effect of expanding the ability to purchase firearms (including via NICS checks under 922(t)) in additional states without being treated as an out-of-state buyer.
