Frequently Asked Questions

What is HR 4202 and what does it propose?

HR 4202, known as the 'Multiple Firearm Sales Reporting Modernization Act of 2023,' is a proposed bill that aims to expand the ATF's reporting requirements for Federal Firearms Licensees (FFLs). It seeks to mandate the reporting of sales of all types of firearms, not just handguns, when two or more are sold to the same unlicensed person within five business days.

How does HR 4202 differ from current ATF reporting laws?

Current law requires FFLs to report sales of two or more pistols or revolvers to the same buyer within five business days. HR 4202 would strike 'pistols, or revolvers' and replace it with 'firearms,' meaning sales of rifles, shotguns, and other long guns would also need to be reported under the same conditions.

What is the legislative history of HR 4202?

HR 4202, or similar versions, has been introduced multiple times in Congress. Previous iterations, such as HR 7904, have not garnered significant support, often having very few co-sponsors, suggesting a challenging path for passage.

What is the speaker's assessment of HR 4202's chances of passing?

The speaker, demonstrating expert knowledge of legislative processes, believes HR 4202 is unlikely to pass. They cite the bill's repeated introductions without significant traction and the historical lack of co-sponsorship as indicators of its low probability of success in Congress.
