Delaware HB35
Title: An Act To Amend Title 11 And Title 24 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Criminal History Background Checks In Connection With The Sale Or Transfer Of Firearms.
Description: Federally licensed firearms dealers (FFLs) are required to perform criminal history background checks on prospective firearms purchasers. However, when the sale or transfer of a firearm does not involve a licensed dealer, no background check is required. This is an enormous loophole—one in which convicted felons, minors and other prohibited purchasers can readily avoid background checks and more easily acquire guns. This bill would require that a criminal history background check be performed in connection with the sale or transfer of all firearms, with a few exceptions noted below. Background checks would be performed by licensed firearms dealers, who are already required to conduct a background check whenever they sell a firearm or when requested by private parties. Dealers would be required to maintain records of such background checks in accordance with state and federal law. Background checks would not be required in private party transactions (1) in which the buyer or transferee is a member of the seller or transferor’s immediate family (parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, sibling or spouse); (2) involving antique firearms and certain replicas thereof; (3) involving the return by a licensed pawnbroker of a firearm to the person from whom it was received; or (4) involving qualified active duty and retired law-enforcement officers. Persons who violate this act would be guilty of a class A misdemeanor for a first offense. Any subsequent offense would be a class G felony.

Title: Firearms; person guilty of Class 4 felony if sells to person he knows is prohibited from possessing.
Description: Sale and transport for sale of firearms to certain persons; penalty. Provides that a person who engages in the "strawman" purchase of a firearm, where he purchases a firearm with the intent to resell or transport with the intent to resell outside of the Commonwealth to any person he knows is prohibited from purchasing a firearm, is guilty of a Class 4 felony and shall be sentenced to a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment of one year. Under current law, the penalty for such an offense is a Class 5 felony. Finally, the bill provides that a person who is ineligible to purchase or possess a firearm and who assists any other person in the strawman purchase of a firearm is guilty of a Class 4 felony with a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment of five years to be served consecutively with any other sentence. Under current law, the penalty for such offense is a Class 5 felony with a mandatory minimum term of five years. The prohibitions against strawman purchases do not apply to the purchase of a firearm by a parent, grandparent, or other guardian of a child for the lawful use, possession, or transport of the firearm by the child where the child's age is the sole reason the child is ineligible to purchase a firearm. The bill also adds persons found legally incompetent or mentally incapacitated, persons involuntarily admitted to a mental health facility or sent for involuntary outpatient mental health treatment, and those who were the subject of a temporary detention order and subsequently agreed to voluntary admission to a mental health facility to the list of persons for whom it is illegal to sell, barter, give, or furnish a firearm if the seller knows that the person is prohibited from possessing or transporting a firearm and increases the penalty from a Class 6 felony to a Class 4 felony.
