Relating to the disposition of a firearm surrendered through a firearm buyback program administered by certain local law enforcement agencies.

HB 3065 requires Texas local law enforcement agencies (like city police or sheriff's departments) to destroy firearms surrendered through their buyback programs. The bill mandates that destruction must completely melt, shred, or crush the firearm's core components, or cut critical parts in at least three places. Agencies may sell surrendered firearms only if a licensed dealer conducts a background check and confirms the buyer can legally own a firearm. The Texas Commission on Law Enforcement can discipline agency leaders who fail to follow these destruction requirements.
