Plain-English Summary

The proposal would require law enforcement agencies to destroy firearms that have been seized and are no longer needed as evidence, rather than allowing them to be sold or transferred. This affects police departments and gun owners whose weapons are confiscated during investigations, as it ensures certain guns don't re-enter circulation after cases are closed. The measure aims to prevent weapons from being resold or used in future crimes.
