Summary

Every person desiring to purchase a firearm must first undergo and pass the criminal background check required by the laws of both the United States and the State of Delaware. Likewise, there are numerous professions and individual licensing processes that require their members to undergo either intense screening, intense training, or both. This amendment recognizes that fact and provides an exemption for certain professionals and individuals for whom the “permit-to-purchase” process contained in the original bill would represent an unnecessary waste of State time, money and human resources while adding no additional safety to the community. This amendment would eliminate from the permitting process those who have already been screened, trained and/or licensed and would allow scarce resources to be used more effectively to protect the public by eliminating unnecessary volume from the system and recognizing the overall value and trustworthiness the listed persons and professionals bring to our State.
