AI Summary

  • Adds definitions for "federally licensed firearms dealer" and "licensing authority" (city/township police departments or county sheriffs) to clarify who issues firearm licenses.

  • Allows purchasers to electronically submit pistol license copies to the department of state police instead of only mailing or delivering in person to local licensing authorities.

  • Allows sellers to electronically submit sales records to the department of state police for licensed purchasers (concealed pistol license holders, federally licensed dealers, and police officers).

  • Changes language from "person" to "individual" throughout the statute for consistency and clarifies that licensing authorities must issue licenses "with due speed and diligence."

  • Requires the department of state police to establish an electronic submission system for both purchasers and sellers to register firearms, modernizing the pistol registration process.
