Prohibits sale of ammunition by vending machine.
This bill prohibits the sale of ammunition through vending machines that dispense ammunition directly to consumers after payment. It defines a "vending machine" as any device accepting payment and dispensing items, making it illegal for vendors to sell ammunition this way. Violating this law is a fourth-degree crime punishable by up to 18 months in prison, a $10,000 fine, or both. The law directly affects vending machine operators and anyone purchasing ammunition through such machines.
