Undetectable Firearms Modernization Act

Bill 118 hr 4160, also known as the Undetectable Firearms Modernization Act, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The main purpose of this bill is to address the issue of undetectable firearms, which are firearms that are not easily detectable by metal detectors or other security measures.

The bill seeks to update the Undetectable Firearms Act of 1988 by requiring that all firearms contain at least one major component that is detectable by security screening devices. This would help to ensure that these firearms can be identified and prevented from being brought into secure locations such as airports, government buildings, and schools.

Additionally, the bill includes provisions for the Department of Justice to conduct a study on the use of 3D printing technology to manufacture firearms, as well as to provide grants to states to help enforce the requirements of the legislation. Overall, the Undetectable Firearms Modernization Act aims to strengthen existing laws and regulations surrounding undetectable firearms in order to enhance public safety and security. It is currently being debated in Congress and may undergo further revisions before being voted on.
