Provides that a Federal Firearms Licensee who takes physical possession of a locked firearm pursuant to a firearm hold agreement, and who stores the locked firearm, is immune from civil liability arising from taking possession of the firearm, storing the firearm, or returning the firearm to the owner, except: (1) when the licensee returns the firearm to a person the licensee knows, or reasonably should know, is a danger to self or others; and (2) in a civil action based upon the licensee's negligence or unlawful conduct.
