Common Sense Gun Regulations.
HB 732 requires permits and a 72-hour waiting period for purchasing assault weapons or long guns, prohibits sales to those under 21 for semi-automatic firearms, and bans bump stocks, ghost guns, and certain high-capacity magazines. It mandates safe firearm storage, repeals "stand your ground" laws, and requires firearm liability insurance for owners. The bill also prohibits leaving firearms unattended in vehicles, mandates reporting lost/stolen guns, and directs the state pension fund to divest from gun manufacturers. These provisions directly affect all firearm purchasers and owners in North Carolina.
