HB 53 Florida House · 2025 Regular Session

Sales of Ammunition

HB 53 requires background checks for the sale or transfer of ammunition. It directly affects gun stores, private sellers, and individuals purchasing or receiving ammunition. The bill mandates that sellers conduct a background check before completing any transaction to verify the buyer is not legally prohibited from possessing ammunition. This change aims to prevent ammunition from being sold to individuals with disqualifying factors, such as certain criminal records.
