SB 414 Oklahoma Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Firearms; authorizing county sheriffs to make certain arrests. Effective date.

SB 414 amends Oklahoma's Second Amendment Sanctuary State Act to authorize county sheriffs to arrest federal employees, contractors, or law enforcement officers who enforce gun regulations deemed infringing on constitutional rights. The law preempts local laws restricting firearms under federal statutes like the National Firearms Act (1934) and Gun Control Act (1968), defining "infringement" as any law reducing gun rights for law-abiding citizens. Sheriffs are empowered to enforce this by arresting those violating the act, with violators facing felony charges punishable by up to one year in jail or a $30,000 fine. The bill directly affects sheriffs (granting arrest authority), federal employees enforcing gun laws, and law-abiding citizens (protecting their firearm rights). It takes effect November 1, 2025.
