A BILL FOR AN ACT
RELATING TO FIREARMS.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. Chapter 134, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by adding a new section to part I to be appropriately designated and to read as follows:
"§134- Bump
fire stock, multiburst trigger activator, or trigger crank; prohibition. (a)
Any person in this State who manufactures or causes to be manufactured,
imports into the State, keeps for sale, or offers or exposes for sale, or who
gives, lends, or possesses any bump fire stock, multiburst trigger activator,
or trigger crank shall be guilty of a class C felony.
(b) As used in this section:
"Bump fire stock" means
a butt stock designed to be attached to a semiautomatic firearm and designed,
made, or altered to increase the rate of fire achievable with such firearm by
using energy from the recoil of the firearm to generate a reciprocating action
that facilitates repeated activation of the trigger.
"Multiburst
trigger activator" means:
(1) A device that simulates automatic gunfire
by allowing standard function of a semiautomatic firearm with a static
positioned trigger finger or a device that fires multiple shots with the pull
and release of the trigger; or
(2) A manual or power-driven trigger activating
device constructed and designed so that when attached to a semiautomatic
firearm it simulates automatic gunfire.
"Trigger crank" means
any device to be attached to a semiautomatic firearm that repeatedly activates
the trigger of the firearm through the use of a lever or other part that is
turned in a circular motion, but does not include any firearm initially
designed and manufactured to fire through the use of a crank or lever."
SECTION 2. New statutory material is underscored.
SECTION 3. This Act shall take effect upon its approval.
