Delaware HB154 amends Title 16 of the Delaware Code to provide immunity from civil damages for tax-exempt nonprofit organizations and law enforcement agencies distributing secure gun storage or safety devices. These distributors are protected from liability if the device is distributed in its original packaging and unopened, and if an information pamphlet about gun safety is provided to the recipient.
