HB 26-1265

HB 26-1265 is a Colorado law that requires all local police departments to register with and use the federal National Electronic Tracing System. This system helps track firearms by collecting information on guns recovered or confiscated by law enforcement. The bill also mandates that these agencies share this information with the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. Since the status of the bill is "signed," it has been approved by the legislature and signed into law, meaning local police departments must now comply with its requirements.
