Governor Steve Sisolak signed the "1 October Bill" into law on Friday. Assembly Bill 291 will ban bump stocks at the state level and lowers the legal blood alcohol level for carrying a firearm outside a person's residence.

It also allows police or family members to seek an order requiring a person to surrender any firearms if they appear to pose a danger to themselves or others. It also allows the court to authorize law enforcement to seize a firearm if the person has not surrendered the firearm.

Some people call AB291 the "1 October Bill" due in part to the deadly mass shooting in Las Vegas in 2017. Democratic Assemblywoman Sandra Jauregui is the bill's sponsor, and survived the shooting that killed 58 people.

Jauregui had told Senate Judiciary Committee members that the bill will help prevent school shootings, other mass shootings and suicides. 

A nationwide ban took effect this year on bump stocks, the attachment used by the gunman in the 2017 Las Vegas massacre.

AB 291 will also lower the legal blood alcohol limit to carry a firearm from 0.10 to 0.08 percent.

Reno resident Armand Jusuf doesn't think bump stocks should be banned, though President Donald Trump signed a bill making them illegal under federal law back in March. Jusuf just thinks the solutions should focus on the people, not the guns. He says addressing mental health is important, but he's a little wary about the new system addressing high-risk behavior.

"It depends on how far it goes, right?" Jusuf says. "Because we don't want to infringe on the freedom and liberties of Americans … [but] high-risk behavior, obviously, it's a no brainer if somebody's had issues in the past, you obviously want to do another thorough check or some kind of preventative measures to prevent those people from getting the guns they shouldn't be getting in the first place."

KJ Fercho, also a Reno resident, likes that lawmakers are making an effort to improve gun safety.

"We also have a duty, I think as people, to try to make the best system we possibly can for our community," Fercho. "So I do like the fact that there are efforts being put in to make our community safer."

Assemblywoman Sandra Jauregui released this statement: 

“For over ten weeks, I worked with stakeholders and community groups to develop and pass the most comprehensive gun safety legislation in Nevada history. At the same moment that my 1 October Bill - AB291 - was getting final approval by the Nevada Senate, a disgruntled individual went on a 10-minute shooting rampage in Virginia Beach, VA. The largest mass shooting of the year took the lives of 12 people, left several others seriously wounded and victimized hundreds of others. Ten weeks to save lives, ten minutes to take them. We'll never be able to go back and protect those who have been taken from us because of gun violence, but because of the actions that we took in Nevada we are making our communities a safer place.”

Nevada State Democratic Party Chair William McCurdy II released the following statement:

“No one needs reminding the country’s deadliest mass shooting happened in our backyard when a shooter equipped with bump stocks murdered 58 concert goers in Las Vegas. I am beyond grateful to our leaders for passing legislation to finally ban this dangerous tool. In addition, this legislation establishes extreme risk protection orders to keep guns out of the hands of those who pose a risk of harming themselves or others, and will finally hold gun owners accountable for improperly storing their firearms. I have no doubt this important bill will keep our communities and schools safer. After passing universal background checks earlier this year, Democrats are making good on their promise to make Nevada safer.”
