HB1213

South Dakota gun owners would face a Class 6 felony charge if they knowingly give, loan, or sell a firearm to a minor who then uses it to commit a crime, or if they store a firearm unsecured (without a locked container or trigger lock) and a minor obtains and uses it in a crime. The law would not apply if the firearm was disabled, had an essential firing component removed, or was stolen by the minor through an illegal act.
