The above is a link to the proposed law for “basic” gun safety. All 18 pages!

Seems that “temporary” loan (whatever that means) of a gun while on a hunt is okay. A gift to a close relative is okay. (Loaning or sale to the relative is not okay)

Seems that at a shooting range you can only let a spouse use your weapon. But not anyone else. Not sure why the rules would be different for hunting rather than a shooting range.

One thing to note, in WA state the gun shows require you to be a member of their group in order to buy or sell weapons. To be a member you have to pass the Federal background check (I think it lasts a year). So purchasers have passed a background check, just not for each time they buy a weapon.

Right - you can’t buy or sell unless ... and the people pushing this thing are saying that gun shows are loop holes, etc etc....
