Delaware Senate Democrats approved a bill requiring fingerprinting, training, and permission for handgun purchases.

Delaware's Senate Democrats have approved a bill requiring handgun buyers to undergo fingerprinting, training, and obtain permission from the state before purchasing a weapon. The legislation, which now moves to Democratic Governor John Carney, aims to promote responsible gun ownership and is set to impose qualifications for handgun purchases, including completion of a firearms training course and being fingerprinted by the State Bureau of Identification. The bill includes exemptions for law enforcement officers and those with concealed carry permits.
