The bill also makes it a serious misdemeanor for someone 18 or older to sell, loan, give or make a pistol, revolver or ammunition available to someone younger than 18, with a class 'D' felony for second and subsequent offenses. Proponents of the bill argue that Iowa's current law infringes on Second Amendment rights by restricting younger adults, citing recent federal court decisions that have struck down age-based firearm restrictions. Opponents argue that lowering the age would increase gun violence and suicides by putting more guns into the hands of young people. The bill now moves to the Iowa Senate for consideration. |
