Firearm safety training requirement for persons purchasing firearms provision, firearm sales records retention requirement provision, and criminal penalties provision

This bill requires all individuals purchasing a firearm (except specific exclusions like dealers, law enforcement, or antique sales) to provide proof of recent firearm safety training before completing a sale. The training must cover safe handling, storage, legal use, and include a shooting exercise, verified by a certificate from an approved instructor. Sellers must document the transaction with copies of the buyer's ID, training certificate, and firearm details, retaining these records for ten years. Failure to produce these records during a police investigation is a misdemeanor offense. The bill directly affects all firearm purchasers in Minnesota who are not exempt under the specified exclusions.
