HB 430, titled the "Protect Kids Not Guns Act," requires most firearm owners to store guns in locked containers or with safety devices, making unsecured storage a criminal misdemeanor. It bans possession of large-capacity magazines (holding more than 10 rounds) for non-law enforcement individuals, with exceptions for police use, and restricts private firearm transfers to family gifts, dealer transactions, or specific legal transfers. The bill also adds penalties for unauthorized sales or transfers, including fines up to $10,000 and a two-year firearm possession ban. These changes directly affect Tennessee residents owning firearms, magazine users, and private sellers, aiming to enhance safety through storage and transfer regulations.
