Federal Firearm Licensee Act
Not law yet. Pending legislation.
Sen. Durbin et al.
Bill summary
Official digest is not on this card.
Now vs if chaptered
NOW: introduced only; not present GCA dealer law. IF CHAPTERED: new/expanded FFL security, inventory, records, inspection, and no-check-transfer penalty duties would be live federal dealer counts — still not a street-possess charge.
Defender utility
Federal defenders and FFL counsel: this is a pending dealer-duty overlay, not a client possessory 922(g) count. If it moves, separate shop-security/inventory/records violations from any transferred-firearm charge against the buyer. CA PDs: not a California charge; useful only as a dealer-duty analogue next to DROS/FFL calendars.
Who this is for. FFLs/makers and federal defenders prepping a pending dealer-security/records overlay — not a client possessory charge; not present law.
Penalties (if chaptered)
Would increase penalties for knowing transfer without a background check and expand ATF license-issuance/revocation tools. Not in force.
