The resolution proposes a measure regarding firearms that will be submitted to the voters of Arizona for approval. It seeks to amend Title 13, Chapter 31 of the Arizona Revised Statutes by adding a new section, 13-3123, which establishes regulations for the sale and transfer of firearms. Under this measure, individuals may not sell or transfer firearms unless they are licensed dealers or the transaction is facilitated by a licensed dealer. The licensed dealer is required to conduct background checks on purchasers and ensure compliance with all applicable laws before completing the transfer.

Additionally, the resolution outlines specific exceptions to these regulations, including transactions involving law enforcement agencies, certain military personnel, gunsmiths, and temporary transfers for safety reasons. Violations of this section would be classified as a class 5 felony. If approved by voters, the measure will become law upon proclamation by the Governor, and the Secretary of State is tasked with submitting this proposition to the electorate at the next general election.
