Bill overview
This bill, the Defective Firearms Protection Act, aims to bring firearms under the jurisdiction of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Specifically, it removes an existing exclusion from the Consumer Product Safety Act that previously prevented the CPSC from regulating pistols, revolvers, and other firearms. By doing so, the CPSC would gain the authority to establish safety standards and regulations for these types of products, similar to those applied to other consumer goods.
