What it does
The Advancing Gun Safety Technology Act would authorize the Attorney General to run a pilot program awarding grants of up to $10 million in FY 2026 to small businesses with fewer than 500 employees to develop gun safety technology, such as smart guns or personalized locking devices, aimed at reducing accidental or unauthorized use. The program would fund between 3 and 5 grants, requiring recipients to report on milestones like prototype development, reliability testing, trial production planning, and commercialization preparation. The bill defines eligible entities as small business concerns and gun safety technology as including user-authorized firearms and related safety devices.
