Concerns certain sale and possession of firearms; repeals personalized handgun law.
This bill removes a previous requirement that personalized handguns must have microstamping technology to be sold or transferred by licensed dealers in New Jersey. It also eliminates the mandate for individuals to purchase firearm liability insurance in order to legally possess a gun within the state. Additionally, the legislation updates legal definitions for terms such as antique firearms, destructive devices, and explosives to clarify what items fall under these categories. These changes directly impact gun dealers, firearm owners, and the state's regulatory framework regarding the sale and possession of weapons.
