Regulates pistol converters and convertible pistols
What changed between versions
The definition of a 'convertible pistol' was changed from requiring a 'cruciform trigger bar' to allowing conversion by 'readily altering' the trigger bar, which broadens the scope of weapons considered convertible.
A new definition for 'cruciform trigger bar' was added to explain its specific mechanical function, providing context for the altered definition of convertible pistols.
The exclusion criteria for non-convertible pistols were simplified by removing references to 'striker-fired' mechanisms and replacing them with a general exclusion for 'hammer-fired semi-automatic pistols'.
The list of common household tools used to convert pistols was updated to include 'rotary tools' and reorganized for clarity.
The State Police superintendent is now required to publish an annual list of pistols determined to be convertible, creating a specific administrative mechanism for identifying regulated items.
