LAS VEGAS -- The national discussion about gun violence is prompting Nevada lawmakers to consider new legislation.
Among the proposals is an excise tax on guns and ammunition to pay for mental health care.
Assembly Majority Leader William Horne requested the bill as a way to fund services for the mentally ill and victims of crime.
Although the ink isn't dry on a draft yet, should it pass, gun buyers could expect a tax on guns of between $20 and $25 and a tax on ammunition of 2 cents per round.
