Background checks for commercial gun sales are crucial to the safety of the public. It should take no less than three days for the process to be completed, although it takes on average 25 days. While technological improvements have made this process more efficient, thousands of prohibited purchasers are still able to obtain firearms through this loophole. The Enhanced Background Checks Act of 2021/21 will allow licensed gun dealers and police officers to run background checks on any potential buyers. This will ensure the safety of lawful citizens.

Age minimum to purchase semi-automatic guns

A U.S. appels court panel overturned Florida's ban on selling semi-automatic weapons for sale to anyone under 21 on Thursday.

The National Rifle Association (gun control group) is challenging the law. It limits the age that you can purchase handguns and long guns to 18 and 21 respectively.


Gun buyers with mental illnesses must wait for their guns to be delivered

Recent research has shown that people suffering from mental illness may be more likely to commit suicide if they delay purchasing firearms. The results are not conclusive. However, they do suggest that suicide attempts might be delayed if firearms are not purchased in the earliest possible. In the same way, people suffering from mental illness may be able to delay purchasing firearms in order to get treatment. While waiting periods are necessary to limit suicides, the effects of such a measure may be minimal.

New York State legislators took steps to reduce gun violence in response to a series of mass shootings that occurred across the country. A bill authored by Assemblywoman Amy Paulin of Scarsdale has been signed into law, closing the statutory loophole for bump stocks.

A House bill on gun control has passed in the Democratic-controlled House, a step in the right direction after the Uvalde school shooting in Texas, which left 19 children and two teachers dead. The effort to expand gun laws was led by Mike Thompson, a Democratic Representative. Gun violence kills nearly 100 Americans each year, according to estimates.
