H.R. 3091 – Federal Law Enforcement Officer Service Weapon Purchase Act
PASSED 232-198
Agreed to by Recorded Vote
McCormick #2 – Subsidizes purchase of retired service weapons by discounting from “fair market value” to “salvage value,” preventing an agency from recouping the full value of the weapon and making the most of taxpayer dollars as intended by the bill AGREED TO 248-184
Luttrell #3 – Allows retired federal law enforcement officers to also be eligible to purchase surplus service weapons without the usual NICS background check or certification of good standing due to their separation from a federal agency AGREED TO 232-202
Rosendale #4 – This amendment would allow semiautomatic assault weapons, sniper rifles, and military-grade weaponry to be purchased without a background check. Though the amendment excludes machine guns, it does not exclude other firearms subject to heightened regulation under the National Firearms Act, such as short-barreled rifles and even grenade launchers AGREED TO 218-217
Failed by Recorded Vote
Jacobs #1 – Refines the “good standing” prerequisite by requiring each federal agency to establish formal criteria, ensuring that agency standards are consistent with the NICS check system FAILED 216-219
