HR 3091 United States House · 118th Congress

Federal Law Enforcement Officer Service Weapon Purchase Act

This bill allows current federal law enforcement officers to purchase retired handguns from their agency within six months of the weapon being declared surplus. Officers must be in good standing with their agency and buy the handgun at its fair market value, considering the weapon's age and condition. The program requires the General Services Administrator to establish the purchasing system within one year of the bill's enactment. It directly affects active federal law enforcement officers who are retiring or leaving service and wish to retain their issued firearms.
