Before a person can own a gun, he or she must get a license, showing that he/she is responsible enough to own a gun. In order to do this, that person must take a safety class, then 100% pass a test over what they have learned. Each person will still receive a background and criminal check before they can take the test. There will be one testing facility in each state. This building will be located in each state’s capital. Tests may be taken online, but one must go to the testing building in order to acquire his or her license. The safety class must also be taken in the testing building. Classes will only be one day sessions, but people must wait two weeks before they can take their test. In order to buy a gun, a person must have their license first. When a person goes to buy a gun, they will have their fingerprint scanned to prove that they are who they say and that they have their license. Guns will only be sold at the testing site. Guns may be ordered online, but they must be picked up the testing building. All gun owners are required to have a gun or trigger lock for each gun they own. They must keep their guns locked at all times when not in use. Those who already own firearms must get gun locks for their guns as well. Guns must be concealed inside the owners home at all times when not in use. Gun owners whose weapons are taken or stolen and used in a crime will be investigated and held accountable for the use of their gun. Police serving in suburbs will receive 5 months of training. Criminals caught using guns will receive an extra 7 years into their sentence. If a person claims to be using a gun out of self defense, they must have proof and the situation will be investigated. If someone owns a gun larger than a hunting gun, the states will limit the amount of ammunition that person can have.
