What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill prohibits the sale, manufacture, transfer, use, and possession of any
device that is added after manufacture that is designed or functions to accelerate the
rate of fire of a semiautomatic firearm. A person who violates the prohibition is guilty
of a Class G felony.
Because this bill creates a new crime or revises a penalty for an existing crime,
the Joint Review Committee on Criminal Penalties may be requested to prepare a
report.
