The Prevent Family Fire Act of 2025 introduces a tax credit for manufacturers, set at 10% of revenue (up to $400), from the sale of safe firearm storage devices, excluding those integrated into firearms or subject to recall. This credit, effective for sales until 2032, aims to encourage responsible gun storage by offsetting the cost of devices secured by combination, key, or biometric locks. The Treasury Secretary will oversee credit recapture and report annually on credit claims by state. This credit can be applied against regular income tax as well as alternative minimum tax.
