30. If a person is mentally INCOMPETENT, they can be adjudicated mentally INCOMPETENT by a court of law
and Federal law already bars those adjudicated mentally incompetent from so much as touching a gun. I believe violating that 1968 law is a 10-year Federal felony.
As I mentioned upthread, having a mild to moderate cognitive delay is NOT synonymous with mental incompetence, and the two concepts should not be conflated.
