CONVERTIBLE PISTOLS (Responsible Gun Manufacturing Act)

First chamber Not law yet bank: queued

Not law yet. Pending legislation.

Rep. Justin Slaughter and Bob Morgan

Bill summary

Official digest is not on this card.

Now vs if chaptered

NOW: not law; referred to House Rules 4/30/2025. IF CHAPTERED in this criminal draft: new 24-1 convertible-pistol count plus machine-gun theory for switch-equipped hosts. Live House vehicle if any later rewrite is HB 4471, not this print.

Defender utility

Illinois PDs: this is the parked House criminal converter-pistol count, not live 720 ILCS 5/24-1 and not the HB 4471 civil rewrite. If revived, split switch-equipped machinegun theories from bare Glock-pattern / polymer-notch pistols and demand the statutory conversion path. CA/MD PDs: portable AB 1127 / MD SB 334 analogue — not a California charge.

Who this is for. IL PDs on Glock-switch / convertible-pistol calendars — pending House criminal 24-1 draft parked in Rules, not present law; not a California charge.

Penalties (if chaptered)

Unlawful possession of weapons; machine-gun inclusion for a convertible pistol equipped with a switch. Exact class not locked on this parked draft.
