business is located, except that this paragraph (A) shall not
apply to the sale or delivery of any rifle or shotgun to a
resident of a State other than a State in which the licensee's
place of business is located if the transferee meets in person
with the transferor to accomplish the transfer, and the sale,
delivery, and receipt fully comply with the legal conditions of
sale in both such States (and any licensed manufacturer, importer
or dealer shall be presumed, for purposes of this subparagraph,
in the absence of evidence to the contrary, to have had actual
knowledge of the State laws and published ordinances of both
States), and (B) shall not apply to the loan or rental of a

the identity and principal and local places of business of such
person if the person is a corporation or other business entity.

apply to transactions between licensed importers, licensed
manufacturers, licensed dealers, and licensed collectors.

licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer may
sell a firearm to a person who does not appear in person at the
licensee's business premises (other than another licensed importer,
manufacturer, or dealer) only if -
(1) the transferee submits to the transferor a sworn statement
in the following form:
''Subject to penalties provided by law, I swear that, in the
case of any firearm other than a shotgun or a rifle, I am
twenty-one years or more of age, or that, in the case of a
shotgun or a rifle, I am eighteen years or more of age; that I
am not prohibited by the provisions of chapter 44 of title 18,
United States Code, from receiving a firearm in interstate or
foreign commerce; and that my receipt of this firearm will not
be in violation of any statute of the State and published
ordinance applicable to the locality in which I reside.
Further, the true title, name, and address of the principal law
enforcement officer of the locality to which the firearm will
be delivered are _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Signature _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Date _ _ _ _.''
and containing blank spaces for the attachment of a true copy of
any permit or other information required pursuant to such statute
or published ordinance;
(2) the transferor has, prior to the shipment or delivery of
the firearm, forwarded by registered or certified mail (return
receipt requested) a copy of the sworn statement, together with a
description of the firearm, in a form prescribed by the Attorney
General, to the chief law enforcement officer of the transferee's

delivery of the statement or has had the statement returned due
to the refusal of the named addressee to accept such letter in
accordance with United States Post Office Department regulations;
and
(3) the transferor has delayed shipment or delivery for a
period of at least seven days following receipt of the
notification of the acceptance or refusal of delivery of the

rejection of that notification shall be retained by the licensee as
a part of the records required to be kept under section 923(g).
(d) It shall be unlawful for any person to sell or otherwise

and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(26)));
(6) who (FOOTNOTE 1) has been discharged from the Armed Forces
under dishonorable conditions;
(FOOTNOTE 1) So in original. The word ''who'' probably should
not appear.
(7) who, having been a citizen of the United States, has
renounced his citizenship;
(8) is subject to a court order that restrains such person from
harassing, stalking, or threatening an intimate partner of such
person or child of such intimate partner or person, or engaging
in other conduct that would place an intimate partner in
reasonable fear of bodily injury to the partner or child, except
that this paragraph shall only apply to a court order that -
(A) was issued after a hearing of which such person received
actual notice, and at which such person had the opportunity to
participate; and
(B)(i) includes a finding that such person represents a
credible threat to the physical safety of such intimate partner
or child; or
(ii) by its terms explicitly prohibits the use, attempted
use, or threatened use of physical force against such intimate
partner or child that would reasonably be expected to cause
bodily injury; or

This subsection shall not apply with respect to the sale or
disposition of a firearm or ammunition to a licensed importer,
licensed manufacturer, licensed dealer, or licensed collector who

precluded from dealing in firearms or ammunition, or to a person
who has been granted relief from disabilities pursuant to
subsection (c) of section 925 of this chapter.

trip without violating any of the provisions of this chapter. No

or other written notice to be placed on the outside of any package,
luggage, or other container that such package, luggage, or other

transport or deliver in interstate or foreign commerce any firearm
or ammunition with knowledge or reasonable cause to believe that
the shipment, transportation, or receipt thereof would be in
violation of the provisions of this chapter.
(2) It shall be unlawful for any common or contract carrier to

and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(26)));
(6) who has been discharged from the Armed Forces under
dishonorable conditions;
(7) who, having been a citizen of the United States, has
renounced his citizenship;
(8) who is subject to a court order that -
(A) was issued after a hearing of which such person received
actual notice, and at which such person had an opportunity to
participate;
(B) restrains such person from harassing, stalking, or

the course of such employment -
(1) to receive, possess, or transport any firearm or ammunition

(j) It shall be unlawful for any person to receive, possess,
conceal, store, barter, sell, or dispose of any stolen firearm or
stolen ammunition, or pledge or accept as security for a loan any
stolen firearm or stolen ammunition, which is moving as, which is a
part of, which constitutes, or which has been shipped or
transported in, interstate or foreign commerce, either before or
after it was stolen, knowing or having reasonable cause to believe
that the firearm or ammunition was stolen.
(k) It shall be unlawful for any person knowingly to transport,
ship, or receive, in interstate or foreign commerce, any firearm
which has had the importer's or manufacturer's serial number
removed, obliterated, or altered or to possess or receive any
firearm which has had the importer's or manufacturer's serial
number removed, obliterated, or altered and has, at any time, been
shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce.
(l) Except as provided in section 925(d) of this chapter, it
shall be unlawful for any person knowingly to import or bring into
the United States or any possession thereof any firearm or
ammunition; and it shall be unlawful for any person knowingly to
receive any firearm or ammunition which has been imported or
brought into the United States or any possession thereof in
violation of the provisions of this chapter.
(m) It shall be unlawful for any licensed importer, licensed

promulgated thereunder.
(n) It shall be unlawful for any person who is under indictment
for a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one
year to ship or transport in interstate or foreign commerce any
firearm or ammunition or receive any firearm or ammunition which
has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce.
(o)(1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), it shall be unlawful
for any person to transfer or possess a machinegun.
(2) This subsection does not apply with respect to -
(A) a transfer to or by, or possession by or under the
authority of, the United States or any department or agency
thereof or a State, or a department, agency, or political
subdivision thereof; or
(B) any lawful transfer or lawful possession of a machinegun
that was lawfully possessed before the date this subsection takes
effect.
(p)(1) It shall be unlawful for any person to manufacture,
import, sell, ship, deliver, possess, transfer, or receive any
firearm -
(A) that, after removal of grips, stocks, and magazines, is not
as detectable as the Security Exemplar, by walk-through metal
detectors calibrated and operated to detect the Security
Exemplar; or
(B) any major component of which, when subjected to inspection
by the types of x-ray machines commonly used at airports, does
not generate an image that accurately depicts the shape of the
component. Barium sulfate or other compounds may be used in the
fabrication of the component.
(2) For purposes of this subsection -
(A) the term ''firearm'' does not include the frame or receiver
of any such weapon;
(B) the term ''major component'' means, with respect to a
firearm, the barrel, the slide or cylinder, or the frame or
receiver of the firearm; and
(C) the term ''Security Exemplar'' means an object, to be
fabricated at the direction of the Attorney General, that is -
(i) constructed of, during the 12-month period beginning on
the date of the enactment of this subsection, 3.7 ounces of
material type 17-4 PH stainless steel in a shape resembling a
handgun; and
(ii) suitable for testing and calibrating metal detectors:
Provided, however, That at the close of such 12-month period, and
at appropriate times thereafter the Attorney General shall
promulgate regulations to permit the manufacture, importation,
sale, shipment, delivery, possession, transfer, or receipt of
firearms previously prohibited under this subparagraph that are
as detectable as a ''Security Exemplar'' which contains 3.7
ounces of material type 17-4 PH stainless steel, in a shape
resembling a handgun, or such lesser amount as is detectable in
view of advances in state-of-the-art developments in weapons
detection technology.
(3) Under such rules and regulations as the Attorney General
shall prescribe, this subsection shall not apply to the
manufacture, possession, transfer, receipt, shipment, or delivery
of a firearm by a licensed manufacturer or any person acting
pursuant to a contract with a licensed manufacturer, for the
purpose of examining and testing such firearm to determine whether
paragraph (1) applies to such firearm. The Attorney General shall
ensure that rules and regulations adopted pursuant to this
paragraph do not impair the manufacture of prototype firearms or
the development of new technology.
(4) The Attorney General shall permit the conditional importation
of a firearm by a licensed importer or licensed manufacturer, for
examination and testing to determine whether or not the
unconditional importation of such firearm would violate this
subsection.
(5) This subsection shall not apply to any firearm which -
(A) has been certified by the Secretary of Defense or the
Director of Central Intelligence, after consultation with the
Attorney General and the Administrator of the Federal Aviation
Administration, as necessary for military or intelligence
applications; and
(B) is manufactured for and sold exclusively to military or
intelligence agencies of the United States.
(6) This subsection shall not apply with respect to any firearm
manufactured in, imported into, or possessed in the United States
before the date of the enactment of the Undetectable Firearms Act
of 1988.
(q)(1) The Congress finds and declares that -
(A) crime, particularly crime involving drugs and guns, is a
pervasive, nationwide problem;
(B) crime at the local level is exacerbated by the interstate
movement of drugs, guns, and criminal gangs;
(C) firearms and ammunition move easily in interstate commerce
and have been found in increasing numbers in and around schools,
as documented in numerous hearings in both the Committee on the
Judiciary (FOOTNOTE 2) the House of Representatives and the
Committee on the Judiciary of the Senate;
(FOOTNOTE 2) So in original. Probably should be followed by
''of''.
(D) in fact, even before the sale of a firearm, the gun, its
component parts, ammunition, and the raw materials from which
they are made have considerably moved in interstate commerce;
(E) while criminals freely move from State to State, ordinary
citizens and foreign visitors may fear to travel to or through
certain parts of the country due to concern about violent crime
and gun violence, and parents may decline to send their children
to school for the same reason;
(F) the occurrence of violent crime in school zones has
resulted in a decline in the quality of education in our country;
(G) this decline in the quality of education has an adverse
impact on interstate commerce and the foreign commerce of the
United States;
(H) States, localities, and school systems find it almost
impossible to handle gun-related crime by themselves - even
States, localities, and school systems that have made strong
efforts to prevent, detect, and punish gun-related crime find
their efforts unavailing due in part to the failure or inability
of other States or localities to take strong measures; and
(I) the Congress has the power, under the interstate commerce
clause and other provisions of the Constitution, to enact
measures to ensure the integrity and safety of the Nation's
schools by enactment of this subsection.
(2)(A) It shall be unlawful for any individual knowingly to
possess a firearm that has moved in or that otherwise affects
interstate or foreign commerce at a place that the individual
knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, is a school zone.
(B) Subparagraph (A) does not apply to the possession of a
firearm -
(i) on private property not part of school grounds;
(ii) if the individual possessing the firearm is licensed to do
so by the State in which the school zone is located or a
political subdivision of the State, and the law of the State or
political subdivision requires that, before an individual obtains
such a license, the law enforcement authorities of the State or
political subdivision verify that the individual is qualified
under law to receive the license;
(iii) that is -
(I) not loaded; and
(II) in a locked container, or a locked firearms rack that is
on a motor vehicle;
(iv) by an individual for use in a program approved by a school
in the school zone;
(v) by an individual in accordance with a contract entered into
between a school in the school zone and the individual or an
employer of the individual;
(vi) by a law enforcement officer acting in his or her official
capacity; or
(vii) that is unloaded and is possessed by an individual while
traversing school premises for the purpose of gaining access to
public or private lands open to hunting, if the entry on school
premises is authorized by school authorities.
(3)(A) Except as provided in subparagraph (B), it shall be
unlawful for any person, knowingly or with reckless disregard for
the safety of another, to discharge or attempt to discharge a
firearm that has moved in or that otherwise affects interstate or
foreign commerce at a place that the person knows is a school zone.
(B) Subparagraph (A) does not apply to the discharge of a firearm
-
(i) on private property not part of school grounds;
(ii) as part of a program approved by a school in the school
zone, by an individual who is participating in the program;
(iii) by an individual in accordance with a contract entered
into between a school in a school zone and the individual or an
employer of the individual; or
(iv) by a law enforcement officer acting in his or her official
capacity.
(4) Nothing in this subsection shall be construed as preempting
or preventing a State or local government from enacting a statute
establishing gun free school zones as provided in this subsection.
(r) It shall be unlawful for any person to assemble from imported
parts any semiautomatic rifle or any shotgun which is identical to
any rifle or shotgun prohibited from importation under section
925(d)(3) of this chapter as not being particularly suitable for or
readily adaptable to sporting purposes except that this subsection
shall not apply to -
(1) the assembly of any such rifle or shotgun for sale or
distribution by a licensed manufacturer to the United States or
any department or agency thereof or to any State or any
department, agency, or political subdivision thereof; or
(2) the assembly of any such rifle or shotgun for the purposes
of testing or experimentation authorized by the Attorney General.
(s)(1) Beginning on the date that is 90 days after the date of
enactment of this subsection and ending on the day before the date
that is 60 months after such date of enactment, it shall be
unlawful for any licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or
licensed dealer to sell, deliver, or transfer a handgun (other than
the return of a handgun to the person from whom it was received) to
an individual who is not licensed under section 923, unless -
(A) after the most recent proposal of such transfer by the
transferee -
(i) the transferor has -
(I) received from the transferee a statement of the
transferee containing the information described in paragraph
(3);
(II) verified the identity of the transferee by examining
the identification document presented;
(III) within 1 day after the transferee furnishes the
statement, provided notice of the contents of the statement
to the chief law enforcement officer of the place of
residence of the transferee; and
(IV) within 1 day after the transferee furnishes the
statement, transmitted a copy of the statement to the chief
law enforcement officer of the place of residence of the
transferee; and
(ii)(I) 5 business days (meaning days on which State offices
are open) have elapsed from the date the transferor furnished
notice of the contents of the statement to the chief law
enforcement officer, during which period the transferor has not
received information from the chief law enforcement officer
that receipt or possession of the handgun by the transferee
would be in violation of Federal, State, or local law; or
(II) the transferor has received notice from the chief law
enforcement officer that the officer has no information
indicating that receipt or possession of the handgun by the
transferee would violate Federal, State, or local law;
(B) the transferee has presented to the transferor a written
statement, issued by the chief law enforcement officer of the
place of residence of the transferee during the 10-day period
ending on the date of the most recent proposal of such transfer
by the transferee, stating that the transferee requires access to
a handgun because of a threat to the life of the transferee or of
any member of the household of the transferee;
(C)(i) the transferee has presented to the transferor a permit
that -
(I) allows the transferee to possess or acquire a handgun;
and
(II) was issued not more than 5 years earlier by the State in
which the transfer is to take place; and
(ii) the law of the State provides that such a permit is to be
issued only after an authorized government official has verified
that the information available to such official does not indicate
that possession of a handgun by the transferee would be in
violation of the law;
(D) the law of the State requires that, before any licensed
importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer completes the
transfer of a handgun to an individual who is not licensed under
section 923, an authorized government official verify that the
information available to such official does not indicate that
possession of a handgun by the transferee would be in violation
of law;
(E) the Attorney General has approved the transfer under
section 5812 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986; or
(F) on application of the transferor, the Attorney General has
certified that compliance with subparagraph (A)(i)(III) is
impracticable because -
(i) the ratio of the number of law enforcement officers of
the State in which the transfer is to occur to the number of
square miles of land area of the State does not exceed 0.0025;
(ii) the business premises of the transferor at which the
transfer is to occur are extremely remote in relation to the
chief law enforcement officer; and
(iii) there is an absence of telecommunications facilities in
the geographical area in which the business premises are
located.
(2) A chief law enforcement officer to whom a transferor has
provided notice pursuant to paragraph (1)(A)(i)(III) shall make a
reasonable effort to ascertain within 5 business days whether
receipt or possession would be in violation of the law, including
research in whatever State and local recordkeeping systems are
available and in a national system designated by the Attorney
General.
(3) The statement referred to in paragraph (1)(A)(i)(I) shall

business day after receipt of such request, communicate any

the transfer and the transferee to -
(A) the chief law enforcement officer of the place of business

(6)(A) Any transferor who sells, delivers, or otherwise transfers

the transferee with respect to the handgun transaction, and shall
retain evidence that the transferor has complied with subclauses
(III) and (IV) of paragraph (1)(A)(i) with respect to the

(B) Unless the chief law enforcement officer to whom a statement

(i) the officer shall, within 20 business days after the date
the transferee made the statement on the basis of which the

(7) A chief law enforcement officer or other person responsible

(8) For purposes of this subsection, the term ''chief law
enforcement officer'' means the chief of police, the sheriff, or an
equivalent officer or the designee of any such individual.
(9) The Attorney General shall take necessary actions to ensure
that the provisions of this subsection are published and
disseminated to licensed dealers, law enforcement officials, and
the public.
(t)(1) Beginning on the date that is 30 days after the Attorney
General notifies licensees under section 103(d) of the Brady
Handgun Violence Prevention Act that the national instant criminal
background check system is established, a licensed importer,
licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer shall not transfer a
firearm to any other person who is not licensed under this chapter,
unless -
(A) before the completion of the transfer, the licensee
contacts the national instant criminal background check system
established under section 103 of that Act;
(B)(i) the system provides the licensee with a unique
identification number; or
(ii) 3 business days (meaning a day on which State offices are
open) have elapsed since the licensee contacted the system, and
the system has not notified the licensee that the receipt of a
firearm by such other person would violate subsection (g) or (n)
of this section; and
(C) the transferor has verified the identity of the transferee
by examining a valid identification document (as defined in
section 1028(d) of this title) of the transferee containing a
photograph of the transferee.
(2) If receipt of a firearm would not violate subsection (g) or
(n) or State law, the system shall -
(A) assign a unique identification number to the transfer;
(B) provide the licensee with the number; and
(C) destroy all records of the system with respect to the call
(other than the identifying number and the date the number was
assigned) and all records of the system relating to the person or
the transfer.
(3) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to a firearm transfer between a
licensee and another person if -
(A)(i) such other person has presented to the licensee a permit
that -
(I) allows such other person to possess or acquire a firearm;
and
(II) was issued not more than 5 years earlier by the State in
which the transfer is to take place; and
(ii) the law of the State provides that such a permit is to be
issued only after an authorized government official has verified
that the information available to such official does not indicate
that possession of a firearm by such other person would be in
violation of law;
(B) the Attorney General has approved the transfer under
section 5812 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986; or
(C) on application of the transferor, the Attorney General has
certified that compliance with paragraph (1)(A) is impracticable
because -
(i) the ratio of the number of law enforcement officers of
the State in which the transfer is to occur to the number of
square miles of land area of the State does not exceed 0.0025;
(ii) the business premises of the licensee at which the
transfer is to occur are extremely remote in relation to the
chief law enforcement officer (as defined in subsection
(s)(8)); and
(iii) there is an absence of telecommunications facilities in
the geographical area in which the business premises are
located.
(4) If the national instant criminal background check system
notifies the licensee that the information available to the system
does not demonstrate that the receipt of a firearm by such other
person would violate subsection (g) or (n) or State law, and the
licensee transfers a firearm to such other person, the licensee
shall include in the record of the transfer the unique
identification number provided by the system with respect to the
transfer.
(5) If the licensee knowingly transfers a firearm to such other
person and knowingly fails to comply with paragraph (1) of this
subsection with respect to the transfer and, at the time such other
person most recently proposed the transfer, the national instant
criminal background check system was operating and information was
available to the system demonstrating that receipt of a firearm by
such other person would violate subsection (g) or (n) of this
section or State law, the Attorney General may, after notice and
opportunity for a hearing, suspend for not more than 6 months or
revoke any license issued to the licensee under section 923, and
may impose on the licensee a civil fine of not more than $5,000.
(6) Neither a local government nor an employee of the Federal
Government or of any State or local government, responsible for
providing information to the national instant criminal background
check system shall be liable in an action at law for damages -
(A) for failure to prevent the sale or transfer of a firearm to
a person whose receipt or possession of the firearm is unlawful
under this section; or
(B) for preventing such a sale or transfer to a person who may
lawfully receive or possess a firearm.
(u) It shall be unlawful for a person to steal or unlawfully take
or carry away from the person or the premises of a person who is
licensed to engage in the business of importing, manufacturing, or
dealing in firearms, any firearm in the licensee's business
inventory that has been shipped or transported in interstate or
foreign commerce.
(v)(1) It shall be unlawful for a person to manufacture,
transfer, or possess a semiautomatic assault weapon.
(2) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to the possession or transfer
of any semiautomatic assault weapon otherwise lawfully possessed
under Federal law on the date of the enactment of this subsection.
(3) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to -
(A) any of the firearms, or replicas or duplicates of the
firearms, specified in Appendix A to this section, as such
firearms were manufactured on October 1, 1993;
(B) any firearm that -
(i) is manually operated by bolt, pump, lever, or slide
action;
(ii) has been rendered permanently inoperable; or
(iii) is an antique firearm;
(C) any semiautomatic rifle that cannot accept a detachable
magazine that holds more than 5 rounds of ammunition; or
(D) any semiautomatic shotgun that cannot hold more than 5
rounds of ammunition in a fixed or detachable magazine.
The fact that a firearm is not listed in Appendix A shall not be
construed to mean that paragraph (1) applies to such firearm. No
firearm exempted by this subsection may be deleted from Appendix A
so long as this subsection is in effect.
(4) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to -
(A) the manufacture for, transfer to, or possession by the
United States or a department or agency of the United States or a
State or a department, agency, or political subdivision of a
State, or a transfer to or possession by a law enforcement
officer employed by such an entity for purposes of law
enforcement (whether on or off duty);
(B) the transfer to a licensee under title I of the Atomic
Energy Act of 1954 for purposes of establishing and maintaining
an on-site physical protection system and security organization
required by Federal law, or possession by an employee or
contractor of such licensee on-site for such purposes or off-site
for purposes of licensee-authorized training or transportation of
nuclear materials;
(C) the possession, by an individual who is retired from
service with a law enforcement agency and is not otherwise
prohibited from receiving a firearm, of a semiautomatic assault
weapon transferred to the individual by the agency upon such
retirement; or
(D) the manufacture, transfer, or possession of a semiautomatic
assault weapon by a licensed manufacturer or licensed importer
for the purposes of testing or experimentation authorized by the
Attorney General.
(w)(1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), it shall be unlawful
for a person to transfer or possess a large capacity ammunition
feeding device.
(2) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to the possession or transfer
of any large capacity ammunition feeding device otherwise lawfully
possessed on or before the date of the enactment of this
subsection.
(3) This subsection shall not apply to -
(A) the manufacture for, transfer to, or possession by the
United States or a department or agency of the United States or a
State or a department, agency, or political subdivision of a
State, or a transfer to or possession by a law enforcement
officer employed by such an entity for purposes of law
enforcement (whether on or off duty);
(B) the transfer to a licensee under title I of the Atomic
Energy Act of 1954 for purposes of establishing and maintaining
an on-site physical protection system and security organization
required by Federal law, or possession by an employee or
contractor of such licensee on-site for such purposes or off-site
for purposes of licensee-authorized training or transportation of
nuclear materials;
(C) the possession, by an individual who is retired from
service with a law enforcement agency and is not otherwise
prohibited from receiving ammunition, of a large capacity
ammunition feeding device transferred to the individual by the
agency upon such retirement; or
(D) the manufacture, transfer, or possession of any large
capacity ammunition feeding device by a licensed manufacturer or
licensed importer for the purposes of testing or experimentation
authorized by the Attorney General.
(4) If a person charged with violating paragraph (1) asserts that
paragraph (1) does not apply to such person because of paragraph
(2) or (3), the Government shall have the burden of proof to show
that such paragraph (1) applies to such person. The lack of a
serial number as described in section 923(i) of this title shall be
a presumption that the large capacity ammunition feeding device is
not subject to the prohibition of possession in paragraph (1).
(x)(1) It shall be unlawful for a person to sell, deliver, or
otherwise transfer to a person who the transferor knows or has
reasonable cause to believe is a juvenile -
(A) a handgun; or
(B) ammunition that is suitable for use only in a handgun.
(2) It shall be unlawful for any person who is a juvenile to
knowingly possess -

(B) ammunition that is suitable for use only in a handgun.
(3) This subsection does not apply to -

in the safe and lawful use of a handgun;
(ii) with the prior written consent of the juvenile's parent
or guardian who is not prohibited by Federal, State, or local
law from possessing a firearm, except -
(I) during transportation by the juvenile of an unloaded

transfer to a place at which an activity described in clause
(i) is to take place and transportation by the juvenile of
that handgun, unloaded and in a locked container, directly
from the place at which such an activity took place to the
transferor; or
(II) with respect to ranching or farming activities as
described in clause (i), a juvenile may possess and use a
handgun or ammunition with the prior written approval of the
juvenile's parent or legal guardian and at the direction of
an adult who is not prohibited by Federal, State or local law
from possessing a firearm;
(iii) the juvenile has the prior written consent in the
juvenile's possession at all times when a handgun is in the

(D) the possession of a handgun or ammunition by a juvenile

intruder into the residence of the juvenile or a residence in
which the juvenile is an invited guest.
(4) A handgun or ammunition, the possession of which is
transferred to a juvenile in circumstances in which the transferor
is not in violation of this subsection shall not be subject to
permanent confiscation by the Government if its possession by the
juvenile subsequently becomes unlawful because of the conduct of
the juvenile, but shall be returned to the lawful owner when such
handgun or ammunition is no longer required by the Government for
the purposes of investigation or prosecution.
(5) For purposes of this subsection, the term ''juvenile'' means
