Legislators in Dover introduced Senate Bill 300 at the end of April, a 26-page measure that would establish a new state-level licensing system for firearm dealers and create what opponents describe as a de facto firearm registry.


The bill requires every firearms dealer in Delaware to obtain a state license in addition to their existing federal FFL. That license comes with a long list of new mandates: High-end surveillance camera systems with mandatory video storage, specific security and storage requirements for inventory, frequent inspections by the Delaware State Police, and tiered licensing fees that increase based on how many guns a dealer sells in a year.

The most controversial provision requires dealers to maintain electronic databases tracking every firearm that passes through their business. Dealers would have to record each gun's make, model, serial number, acquisition and disposition dates, and the identity of every purchaser.
