SB 495 Connecticut Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT PROHIBITING ANY REQUIREMENT THAT A FIREARM SELLER SEND A COPY OF THE SALE OR TRANSFER OF FIREARMS FORM TO THE LOCAL POLICE AUTHORITY WHERE THE FIREARM PURCHASER RESIDES.

This bill amends state law to prohibit firearm sellers from being required to send copies of sale or transfer forms to local police departments where the buyer resides. It directly affects firearm sellers by removing this specific reporting requirement. The key provision changes section 29-33 of the general statutes to eliminate the obligation for sellers to submit these forms to local police authorities. The bill aims to remove what the purpose statement describes as a redundant administrative step.
