House Bill 932 does not designate a state gun itself. Instead, it puts an advisory question before Idaho voters — asking them which firearm should be designated as Idaho's official state gun.
Advisory questions are non-binding but gauge public sentiment. Idaho would join a small number of states with an official state firearm if a subsequent bill were passed based on the advisory vote results.
Sponsored by House Majority Leader Jason Monks (R-Meridian) and Senate Majority Leader Lori Den Hartog (R-Meridian) — both tracked by The Idaho Ledger with positive voting records. This bill reflects their support for Second Amendment culture in Idaho.
