Multiple Firearm Sales Reporting Modernization Act of 2025

The Multiple Firearm Sales Reporting Modernization Act of 2025 would broaden a current federal rule that requires firearms dealers (FFLs) to report certain bulk handgun purchases to include all firearms. Specifically, the bill would require an FFL to report when two or more firearms are sold to the same unlicensed person within five consecutive business days. The change expands the scope from handguns (pistols/revolvers) to all firearms (including rifles and shotguns). The intent is to enhance law enforcement’s ability to detect potentially illegal bulk purchases or straw purchases by expanding the data available on multi-item sales to unlicensed buyers. Potential impacts include increased reporting obligations for FFLs, a wider set of transactions tracked by federal authorities, and possible privacy or civil liberties concerns related to broader data collection. The text provided does not specify reporting procedures, penalties, or exemptions beyond the scope of the expansion.
