Prohibits entry to gun shows to anyone under twelve years of age
This bill prohibits anyone under twelve years old from entering gun shows. It directly affects children under 12 by restricting their access to these events. The key provision adds a new requirement to existing law (Section 896 of the General Business Law) explicitly banning entry for minors under 12, separate from existing background check rules for firearm sales. The bill does not change firearm sale regulations or background check processes.
