The bill exempts law enforcement officers, those who have completed a school sentinel training course, and those securing or retrieving a pistol from a vehicle. It also exempts the use of starting guns at athletic events, firearms at firing ranges or gun shows, and ceremonial weapons at color guard ceremonies.
