WASHINGTON – As we recognize the service and sacrifice of law enforcement officers during National Police Week, the House of Representatives passed Congressman Morgan Luttrell’s (R-TX) amendment to H.R. 3091, which would allow retired federal law enforcement officers in good standing to purchase a retired service weapon from the federal agency that issued the handgun.
“As a strong supporter of the Second Amendment, I’m proud the House of Representatives passed my amendment to Congressman Fry’s common-sense legislation, which would remove red tape to allow law abiding, retired law enforcement officers to purchase service weapons,” said Congressman Luttrell. “It will protect the Second Amendment rights of our federal officers, who sacrificed so much to protect us.”
H.R. 3091, the Federal Law Enforcement Service Weapon Purchase Act, would allow current federal law enforcement officers in good standing to purchase a retired service weapon from a federal agency.
Congressman Luttrell’s amendment to the legislation would allow retired federal law enforcement officers to also be eligible to purchase retired service weapons.
