Why the model tagged it this way: The bill enacts a comprehensive federal firearm owner licensing regime (with background checks, fingerprints, mental-health certifications, disqualifiers, photo ID cards, renewal, and revocation) required to possess handguns or many semiautomatic rifles; mandates records of sale/transfer; adds prohibitions on unlicensed transfer, failure to report loss/theft, address changes, and child access; and creates new penalties. All provisions increase restrictions on purchase, possession, transfer, and storage of covered firearms. No provisions expand access, preempt local rules, create red-flag laws,
