HB714

Removing Exemptions from Firearm Backround Checks

Date of Vote: May 22, 2023

Chamber of Origin: House

This bill changes the law regarding the sale of firearms in Pennsylvania. Currently, private sales of certain guns don't require a background check if they meet specific criteria, like the length of the barrel or the overall size of the firearm. This bill would remove those exemptions, meaning all private sales would require a background check, just like sales through licensed gun dealers.1
