Massachusetts H2598 mandates the executive office of public safety and security to audit firearms registration records and send annual lists to.

Massachusetts H2598 requires the executive office of public safety and security to develop a system for auditing firearms registration records periodically. The system will identify and remove individuals who are deceased or no longer residents. Owners will receive an annual list of registered firearms, including serial numbers and owner information, and must confirm the accuracy of the information. This ensures the records remain current and accurate.
