The proposed bill would amend Section 13-3102 of the Arizona Revised Statutes by adding specific provisions regarding the applicability of certain regulations to state elected officials and judicial officers. It introduces a new clause stating that the regulations apply to state elected officials, while maintaining the existing exemption for judicial officers who have demonstrated firearm competence, provided they adhere to any rules set by the presiding judge in their court facility.
Additionally, the bill modifies the language concerning the possession of weapons for educational purposes. It removes the word "such" from the current statute, clarifying that the exemption for weapon possession applies when the weapon is used for preparing for, conducting, or participating in hunter or firearm safety courses. Overall, these changes aim to clarify the scope of the law regarding weapons in relation to state officials and judicial officers.
