Summary
Second Amendment For Every Registrable Voter Act or the SAFER Voter Act
This bill amends the federal criminal code to modify age restrictions on the sale or delivery of a firearm by a federally licensed gun dealer, manufacturer, importer, or collector.
Currently, it is unlawful for a licensee to sell or deliver: (1) any firearm to an individual less than 18 years of age, or (2) a handgun to an individual less than 21 years of age.
