3/13/2025, 3:23 PM

Summary of Bill HR 1272

Bill 119 hr 1272, also known as the Secure Firearms Storage Act, aims to make changes to both the United States Code and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 in order to promote secure firearms storage. The bill would require Federal firearms licensees to provide information on secure firearms storage to individuals looking to purchase a firearm. This information would help ensure that firearms are stored safely and securely, reducing the risk of accidents or unauthorized access.

Additionally, the bill proposes the creation of a gun safe credit within the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. This credit would provide financial incentives for individuals to purchase and use gun safes for storing their firearms. By encouraging the use of gun safes, the bill seeks to further enhance the safety and security of firearms in households across the country.

Overall, the Secure Firearms Storage Act aims to address the issue of gun safety by promoting responsible storage practices among firearm owners. The bill does not take a partisan stance and focuses on practical measures to reduce the risk of accidents and unauthorized access to firearms.
