Provides that for the purposesof conducting a criminal history record information check for a firearmtransfer, the term "rent" includes a temporary change in dominionor control of a firearm for use at or on the premises of a dealer's business location in exchange for money or other consideration. Undercurrent federal law, the rental of a firearm for use on a dealer'sbusiness premises is not considered to be a sale, disposition, or delivery of the firearm; therefore, such rental would not allowfor a National Instant Criminal Background Check System check tobe performed. The bill would allow the Virginia State Police to conducta Virginia state criminal history record information check instead.
