What this bill would do

The bill, named the "Closing the Bump Stock Loophole Act of 2025," aims to amend title 18 of the United States Code to prohibit machine gun conversion devices and illegal modifications of semiautomatic firearms. It defines "semiautomatic firearm" and makes it unlawful to import, sell, manufacture, transfer, receive, or possess devices that materially increase the rate of fire of a semiautomatic firearm or approximate the action of a machine gun. It also requires registration of modified semiautomatic firearms under the National Firearms Act.
