AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.
Utah law currently requires gun dealers to have buyers fill out a specific written consent form provided by the Bureau of Criminal Identification (BCI) before running a background check — this bill removes that requirement, so dealers no longer need to use that particular state-issued form. It also extends the amount of time BCI may retain background check records for approved buyers from 20 days to 30 days.
