The United States for the next 90 days will no longer issue new export licenses for ammunition and firearms to non-governmental users globally, except for those in select locations, the Commerce Department said.
The order affects most firearms and ammunition that could be bought in a U.S. gun store, Joanna Reeves, an attorney who specializes in arms export controls, said, according to
Reuters.
She said she has not seen the Commerce Department take such a wide-ranging measure like this before. "For sure they have individual country policies – but nothing like this," she said.
U.S. firearms manufacturers such as Smith & Wesson Brands, may be impacted by the ban.
The agency will still review non-governmental export permits to certain countries, including Ukraine and Israel, both of which are at war after being invaded.
