Destroy Zombie Guns Act

HR 7746, the "Destroy Zombie Guns Act," requires businesses that destroy firearms to destroy every component of a firearm during the process, not just parts of it. This law directly affects licensed firearm destruction businesses and individuals operating as regular business to destroy firearms for profit. The bill amends federal law (18 U.S.C. § 922) to make it unlawful to fail this complete destruction, adding penalties including fines, up to 2 years in prison, and license suspension or revocation for licensed destroyers who violate the rule. The key mechanism ensures no firearm parts remain usable after destruction, targeting incomplete destruction practices.
