On June 25, 2022, the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA) was signed into law. BSCA provided authority for federal firearms licensees (FFLs) to perform voluntary serial number checks in the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) Gun File for firearms previously reported as being stolen. Effective August 4, 2025, the NCIC Gun File will be available to all FFLs. The FBI has created documents which provide guidance to FFLs on how to access and run NCIC Gun File searches.
