Bipartisan Safer Communities Act-Access to Records of Stolen Firearms in the National Crime Information Center

Resumo

The United States Department of Justice ("Department") is publishing an interim final rule that amends the regulations pertaining to criminal justice information systems of the Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBI"), specifically the National Crime Information Center ("NCIC"). This rule implements parts of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act ("BSCA" or "Act") and will allow a person who is licensed as an importer, manufacturer, or dealer of firearms ("licensee") to access records of stolen firearms in the NCIC, subject to appropriate controls, for the purpose of voluntarily verifying whether firearms offered for sale to such a licensee have been reported as stolen.
