Proposed:

1. that every firearm be registered, said registration to be maintained in a national database.

2. that the owner’s name and address of every firearm be maintained in the same national database.

3. that every owner be required to have a mental health evaluation AND to pass a skills and knowledge certification process every five years; that on failure any registered firearms are to be surrendered to a secure facility (which may be private) to be held until they can be returned or are released (by owner or owner’s power of attorney or death) for sale or disposal.

4. that a registered owner with valid health certification be allowed to carry, concealed or open as preferred, the registered firearm except in cases identified as being at high risk for accident or mental incompetence of owner or nearby others who might have access (schools, bars, sports games, courts, etc.)

5. that individuals who are not owners may certify for use of firearms by mental health evaluation; that degree of liability for owners who allow people access or use of the owned firearms depends on whether the individuals had and presented their certification.
