Makes an exception where the transferee is a Federal, State, or local government, a law enforcement officer, or a rail police officer.
Subjects violators to license suspension or revocation or to a civil penalty of up to $15,000, or both.
Amends the Consumer Product Safety Act to direct the Consumer Product Safety Commission to establish a consumer product safety standard that requires that such locking devices: (1) are sufficiently difficult for children to deactivate or remove; and (2) prevent the discharge of the handgun unless the device has been activated or removed.
