A bill to amend title 18, United States Code, to discontinue the collection by the Federal Government of firearm transaction records of discontinued firearms businesses, to require the destruction of such already collected records, and for other purposes.

Right now, when a gun dealer goes out of business, they are required to send their records of gun sales to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). This bill would remove that requirement, so gun dealers who close down would no longer have to turn over those records. It would also require the ATF to destroy all the records it has already collected from gun dealers that went out of business.
