House Bill 2 passed the House on Thursday, January 28 by a 97-2 vote. It now moves to the Senate for consideration.

Sponsored by State Representative Jeremy Oden (R-11), HB2 would repeal the section of the Alabama statute that prohibits the possession, sale, receipt, or use of rifles with barrels less than 16 inches long. These rifles are already legal under federal law when properly registered.

Please contact your State Senator TODAY at (334) 242-7800 and respectfully urge them to support this common-sense legislation. Further contact information can be found by clicking here.
