A bill to permanently authorize the Undetectable Firearms Act of 1988.
This bill permanently extends the Undetectable Firearms Act of 1988, which bans the manufacture, sale, or possession of firearms that cannot be detected by standard metal detectors. It removes the temporary sunset provision that would have ended the law's effectiveness after a set date. The bill directly affects firearm manufacturers, sellers, and anyone producing or distributing guns that evade detection, ensuring the existing ban remains in place indefinitely without requiring future legislative action.
