Bill 119 HR 2105, also known as the "Machinegun Conversion Device Act," aims to tackle the issue of importing and spreading machinegun conversion devices in the United States. These devices are used to modify semi-automatic firearms into fully automatic weapons, which are illegal under federal law.The bill proposes to amend the current law by expanding the definition of a machinegun conversion device to include any part or combination of parts designed and intended to convert a semi-automatic firearm into a machinegun. This would make it illegal to import, sell, or possess these devices.
Additionally, the bill would increase penalties for those found in violation of the law. Individuals caught importing or selling machinegun conversion devices could face fines and up to 10 years in prison. Possession of these devices would also be punishable by fines and up to 5 years in prison. Overall, Bill 119 HR 2105 seeks to strengthen existing laws and regulations to prevent the illegal modification of firearms into fully automatic weapons. By targeting the importation and proliferation of machinegun conversion devices, the bill aims to enhance public safety and reduce the risk of gun violence in the United States.
