DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A Senate panel has approved a bill that would lower the age at which children in Iowa could use guns with a parent’s supervision. A three-member judiciary subcommittee approved the bill unanimously Wednesday. It heads to a full committee for consideration, though it needs to advance by Friday to beat a procedural deadline in the Legislature.

The bill would make several changes to Iowa’s gun laws, including legalizing the use of a suppressor to silence a weapon. It also would ban public access to a database of names of people with permits to carry and purchase weapons. The bill would lower the age that a minor could use a pistol or revolver with a parent’s supervision from 14 to 7. A similar House bill has no age limit.
