What changed between versions
The definition of 'firearm industry product' was modified to remove the 'intended to be sold' criterion and reorganize the list of regulated items to include 'rate of firearm enhancement' while removing 'firearm accessory'.
A new definition for 'straw purchaser' was added to clarify who violates firearm purchase laws.
The 'reasonable controls' requirement was modified to add specific compliance references to sections 29-36f, 29-37p, and 29-38o of the general statutes, and removed the requirement to prevent advertising that promotes unlawful manufacture.
New subsections were added prohibiting firearm industry members from providing products to other members suspected of violations and from advertising in ways that promote unlawful sales or unreasonable public safety risks.
The requirement to prevent advertising that promotes unlawful manufacture of firearm industry products was removed from the reasonable controls definition.
Civil enforcement provisions were modified to add notice requirements to the Attorney General and clarify that courts may award restitution and other relief, while removing the automatic civil penalty of up to ten thousand dollars per violation.
