Creates provisions relating to a restricted firearms list
HB 2492 creates a voluntary self-exclusion program for firearm purchases in Missouri. Individuals can file a waiver with the Missouri Department of Public Safety to temporarily or permanently exclude themselves from purchasing firearms, which is entered into background check systems. The program requires designated contact persons to be notified if the individual attempts a purchase while under waiver, and waivers remain active for 30 days after revocation. This directly affects individuals who choose to use this self-exclusion option, with no impact on law enforcement or dealers.
