Concord is currently considering several gun-related bills, including proposals to establish a system for protection orders and waiting periods before purchasing a firearm.

Wednesday’s State House session saw nine bills being discussed, one of which would require background checks before a commercial sale of guns. Another bill would require that there be a waiting period before the gun is delivered to the buyer.

One bill would establish protection orders to prevent people from purchasing guns if they pose a risk to their safety or the safety of others.

The Gun Violence Archive reports that there have been 60 mass shootings in 2023. The bills’ supporters said that they would prevent such tragedy from occurring in New Hampshire.
