Why This Matters

This bill allows federal law enforcement officers to buy their retired service weapons from their agencies. Officers can make these purchases within six months of the firearm being retired and must be in good standing with their agency.

If you are a federal law enforcement officer, you could buy your retired service weapon at a lower price within six months of its retirement.
