Senate Bill 25 will get rid of private sales, require a license to purchase gun, which can only be done from a licensed dealer, who then has to report the gun you bought, your license number and address to the government for registration. This bill is the slippery slope, the only thing missing is the gun ban that will come after.
If Senate Bill S.25, passes and you do nothing with your firearm, you will become a criminal and lose your rights to owning any firearm at all! S.25 would require you to get a firearms license, so that you can continue to legally own that firearm that you already own. To get this license you will need to provide them a passport photo, your name, address, thumb print, a signed certificate stating that you will store your gun safely, a certificate showing that you have passed a mandatory written test on safe storage of firearms, safe handling of firearms, and understanding of all Federal, state, and local gun laws regarding the requirements for possession and safe storage of a firearm. To cover the costs of all these additional requirements you will be required to pay a fee of not more than $25! The license will be good for 5 years after which you will have to renew. And all that is just to be able to apply for the license! If you qualify you will be given a license number with a unique ID number. In this same law, will eliminate the private sale of firearms and require you to go to a licensed dealer, to buy, sell or transfer any firearm. If you wanted to sell your gun to a friend, you would no longer be able to do it directly, you would have to go through a licensed dealer. This law will also require that licensed firearms dealer to submit to the government within 14 days of a purchase the model of firearm, serial number, date of purchase, your license number and your address. This law would also remove the existing law that prevents a system of registration of gun owners. This law would also make it illegal for you to keep a loaded firearm in your house for your protection if there is anyone under the age 18 in the house. If you move and forget to let the government know that you have changed your address, you will prosecuted the same as if you sold a gun without conducting a background check.
