Creates provisions relating to a prohibition on ammunition registries
HB 689, the Missouri Ammunition Privacy Protection Act, prohibits state and local governments, as well as private entities, from creating, maintaining, or using any registry tracking ammunition purchases or sales. It requires the immediate destruction of all existing ammunition sales records within 90 days and bans sellers from collecting personal details like names or addresses for registry purposes. The bill allows law enforcement to access specific transaction records only with a valid court warrant for criminal investigations, while permitting sellers to collect standard business information (e.g., billing details) for commercial use. This law directly affects ammunition buyers, sellers, and government agencies by restricting how personal ammunition transaction data can be handled.
