Washington SB5099 establishes additional requirements for licensed firearms dealers to enhance public safety.

Washington SB5099 mandates that firearms dealers must secure their premises with features like metal bars, metal security screens, or commercial-grade metal doors. Dealers must also install a security alarm system monitored by a remote central station capable of real-time monitoring. The bill requires dealers to maintain digital video surveillance systems that record both video and audio, capturing all areas where firearms are displayed and points of sale. Dealers must complete annual training and background checks for employees, volunteers, and contractors.
