system. On or before January 1, 2027, the Illinois State

subsection accessible to federally licensed firearms dealers
6
to verify that the make, model, and serial numbers of firearms

that are being bought, sold, or transferred by the dealers

have not been reported stolen and shall also provide a receipt

or approval number to a transferor or federally licensed
10

transferred did not appear on the stolen firearm database.
12

(a-30) On or before January 1, 2027, the Illinois State
13
Police shall establish an electronic mechanism by which law

the loss or theft of a firearm pursuant to Section 24-4.1 of
16
the Criminal Code of 2012.
17

(b) Any person within this State who transfers or causes
18
to be transferred any firearm, stun gun, or taser shall keep a
19
record of such transfer for a period of 10 years from the date
20
of transfer. Any person within this State who receives any
21
firearm, stun gun, or taser pursuant to subsection (a-10)
22
shall provide a record of the transfer within 10 days of the
23
transfer to a federally licensed firearm dealer and shall not
24
be required to maintain a transfer record. The federally
25
licensed firearm dealer shall maintain the transfer record for
26
20 years from the date of receipt. A federally licensed

SB3132
- 11 -
LRB104 19116 TRT 32561 b
1
firearm dealer may charge a fee not to exceed $25 to retain the
2
record. The record shall be provided and maintained in either
3
an electronic or paper format. The federally licensed firearm
4
dealer shall not be liable for the accuracy of any information
5
in the transfer record submitted pursuant to this Section.
6
Such records shall contain the date of the transfer; the
7
description, serial number or other information identifying
8
the firearm, stun gun, or taser if no serial number is
9
available; and, if the transfer was completed within this
10
State, the transferee's Firearm Owner's Identification Card
11
number and any approval number or documentation provided by
12
the Illinois State Police pursuant to subsection (a-10) of
13
this Section; if the transfer was not completed within this
14
State, the record shall contain the name and address of the
15
transferee. On or after January 1, 2006, the record shall
16
contain the date of application for transfer of the firearm.
17
On demand of a peace officer such transferor shall produce for
18
inspection such record of transfer. For any transfer pursuant
19
to subsection (a-10) of this Section, on the demand of a peace
20
officer, such transferee shall identify the federally licensed
21
firearm dealer maintaining the transfer record. If the
22
transfer or sale took place at a gun show, the record shall
23
include the unique identification number. Failure to record
24
the unique identification number or approval number is a petty
25
offense. For transfers of a firearm, stun gun, or taser made on
26
or after January 18, 2019 (the effective date of Public Act

SB3132
- 12 -
LRB104 19116 TRT 32561 b
1
100-1178), failure by the private seller to maintain the
2
transfer records in accordance with this Section, or failure
3
by a transferee pursuant to subsection a-10 of this Section to
4
identify the federally licensed firearm dealer maintaining the
5
transfer record, is a Class A misdemeanor for the first
6
offense and a Class 4 felony for a second or subsequent offense
7
occurring within 10 years of the first offense and the second
8
offense was committed after conviction of the first offense.
9
Whenever any person who has not previously been convicted of
10
any violation of subsection (a-5), the court may grant
11
supervision pursuant to and consistent with the limitations of
12
Section 5-6-1 of the Unified Code of Corrections. A transferee
13
or transferor shall not be criminally liable under this
14
Section provided that he or she provides the Illinois State
15
Police with the transfer records in accordance with procedures
16
established by the Illinois State Police. The Illinois State
17
Police shall establish, by rule, a standard form on its
18
website.
