The resolution proposes a measure concerning firearms that will be submitted to the voters of Arizona for approval. It seeks to amend the Arizona Revised Statutes by adding a new section that mandates that individuals may not sell or transfer firearms unless they are licensed dealers or the transaction is facilitated by a licensed dealer. The measure outlines the process for such transactions, including the requirement for background checks on purchasers and sellers, and specifies the responsibilities of licensed dealers in ensuring compliance with federal, state, and local laws.

Additionally, the resolution lists several exceptions to the new requirements, including transactions involving law enforcement agencies, military personnel, gunsmiths, and certain familial transfers. Violations of this section would be classified as a class 5 felony. If approved by voters, the measure would become law upon proclamation by the Governor, and the Secretary of State is tasked with submitting this proposition to the electorate during the next general election.
