❌ HB350
Prohibit certain conduct that accelerates firearm's rate of fire
Summary
HB350 prohibits the importation, manufacture, sale, transfer, or possession of trigger cranks, bump-fire devices, and other items that accelerate the rate of fire of semi-automatic firearms. Violators are guilty of a felony, and the bill also outlines conditions under which individuals may be prohibited from acquiring or using firearms based on certain legal disabilities. The bill includes provisions for individuals to apply for relief from such prohibitions under specific circumstances.
Rationale
The bill restricts the ownership and use of certain firearm accessories, which conflicts with the Libertarian Party's principles of individual rights and the right to bear arms without government restrictions. Both the LP and LPO platforms advocate for the repeal of laws that limit firearm ownership and emphasize personal responsibility in self-defense.
Risks and Concerns
- Increases government control over firearm ownership
- Potentially criminalizes law-abiding citizens for possession of certain devices
- May lead to further restrictions on individual rights
