firearms; sales; regulation
HB 2570 requires gun dealers in Arizona to obtain a state permit before selling firearms, directly affecting businesses selling five or more firearms annually. Dealers must undergo background checks, hold a valid federal license, and pay a $250 application fee to the Department of Public Safety. The bill establishes new rules for permit eligibility, including restrictions for those with recent firearm-related convictions or safety concerns. It also creates a dedicated fund to cover permit processing and inspection costs, but does not change sales rules for individual buyers.
