It also updates legal definitions to explicitly include bump stocks and other rapid-fire trigger activators as machine guns. Additionally, the legislation establishes new criminal penalties for manufacturing, selling, or possessing firearms, frames, or receivers that lack valid serial numbers, with specific exemptions for law enforcement, licensed gunsmiths, and antique weapons.
