Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would bar the Department of Defense and private operators of government-owned plants from selling military-grade assault weapons or ammunition .22 caliber or larger to dealers in the commercial market. It would also bar the Department from buying from gun or ammunition makers and dealers that sell those items commercially. For other firearms and ammunition, sales and purchases would be limited to dealers that meet set requirements, including background checks, security systems, employee training, ammunition purchase limits, and electronic records. The Attorney General would create licenses for ammunition dealers and let them use the national background check system, and government-owned plants and the Department would report yearly to Congress.
