Why the model tagged it this way: The bill repeals 18 USC 1715 (the prohibition on mailing concealable firearms) and limits USPS rulemaking that would restrict or add requirements to mailing firearms, ammunition, and components, thereby expanding the ability to ship firearms by mail under the firearms topic with subtag other.
