Authorizes a person to pass their guns to an immediate family member through their estate

This New York bill (A 894) allows individuals to transfer legally owned and registered firearms to their children or spouse through their estate after death. It amends penal law to permit such transfers without triggering standard sale or transfer restrictions, provided the weapons were legally registered before the owner's death. The bill specifically defines "immediate family" for this purpose as only a child or spouse, not other relatives. It does not change general firearm transfer rules but creates an exception for estate distributions to these family members.
