In plain language

The amendment creates a Task Force to develop best practices for firearms licensees in Delaware.

This amendment establishes a Task Force focused on creating guidelines for Delaware firearms licensees to prevent straw purchases and improve security. It aims to save taxpayer dollars by eliminating financial burdens from the original bill.

What this means for you
  • Small Business: This means small firearms businesses may avoid financial burdens that could force them out of operations.

Summary

This amendment deletes the main body of Senate Substitute #1 for Senate Bill 300 and in lieu thereof creates a new Task Force for the development and implementation of Best Practice Guidelines for Delaware Federal Firearms Licensees (FFLs). The focus of the Task Force will be threefold: (1) Identifying best practices for preventing and reporting straw purchases. (2) Training FFLs and gun shop employees how to identify and avoid straw purchases, and (3) best practices designed to assist the FLL with fundamental security issues. The original bill holds a projected price tag of $4,899,488 taxpayer dollars and does nothing more than duplicate current federal laws, regulations, recordkeeping, and procedures while exposing the individual businessperson to unduly burdensome expense which will most likely result in at least half of Delaware’s law-abiding FFLs being forced out of business. If the true goal of SS#1 for SB 300 is to increase FFL vigilance and prevent potential straw purchases, this Amendment meets that goal head-on and saves the Delaware taxpayer roughly $4,899,488 over a three year period while also saving the from potential loss the Gross Receipt and Income tax dollars of those FFLs who would otherwise be forced out of business by the extravagant financial mandates contained in the original.
