The only problem is that pretty much any medical doctor or counselor could declare pretty much anyone to be a “mental defective” and there is no real legal recourse.
The key word is “adjuciated” according to NRA. It must be a court order or court action that makes the determination. A doctor, clinic, policeman, or your lieutenant cannot adjuciate mental incompetency.
But if Schumer wants it I am still highly suspicious.
That is scary...and with no due process of law or appeal process, they might as well declare any freedom-loving person crazy and take their guns away. Why can't the NRA see that?
