          <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Traveler's Gun Rights Act&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This bill broadens the scope of allowable firearms transactions involving active duty service members and their spouses and individuals who do not have a residence in any state.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Currently, federal firearms laws generally prohibit a federal firearms licensee (e.g., a gun dealer) from sell or delivering a firearm to an individual whose state of residence is different than the state where the licensee's place of business is located.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This bill defines the term &lt;i&gt;state of residence&lt;/i&gt; as the state in which an individual is present with an intention of making a home.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In the case of an individual who does not have a physical residence in any state, then the term &lt;i&gt;state of residence&lt;/i&gt; means the address of the individual's private mailbox or post office box.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In the case of a member of the Armed Forces on active duty, or his or her spouse, the term &lt;i&gt;state of residence&lt;/i&gt; means (1) the state in which the member's permanent duty station is located, and (2) the state where the member maintains a place of abode from which he or she commutes to the permanent duty station.&lt;/p&gt;</text>
