This bill establishes immunity from civil liability for federal firearms licensees in Kansas who return firearms to their owners at the conclusion of a firearm hold agreement. A firearm hold agreement is defined as a private transaction where a licensee temporarily takes possession of a firearm at the owner's request and is responsible for returning it after an agreed period. The bill specifies that this immunity does not apply if the return of the firearm is linked to unlawful conduct by the licensee.
The legislation aims to provide legal protection to federal firearms licensees, encouraging them to engage in firearm hold agreements without the fear of civil lawsuits. The bill will take effect upon its publication in the statute book, reinforcing the legal framework surrounding firearm transactions and ownership in the state.
