SB 307 Ohio Senate · 135th Legislature (2023-2024)

Regards items that accelerate a firearm's rate of fire

SB 307 prohibits individuals with specific criminal records, drug dependencies, or mental health adjudications from acquiring, carrying, or using firearms equipped with trigger cranks or bump-fire devices that accelerate the rate of fire of semi-automatic weapons. The bill also bans the sale, transfer, manufacture, and possession of these specific accessories by the general public, while allowing government entities to continue using them. Additionally, the legislation creates a legal process for people currently prohibited from owning firearms to petition a court for relief if they have fully served their sentences and have led a law-abiding life since their release. Violations of these new restrictions are classified as felonies, and the bill repeals previous laws that allowed for the use of such devices.
