Supposedly it is primarily redefining the parameters around when someone has to have a license to sell guns. Right now it is the sensible idea that you have to sell guns with the "principal objective of livelihood and profit". The change will probably not actually mean more people getting licenses to sell but more people getting prosecuted for not having the license. Right now there is no info on the new definition, but it may include limits on how many guns you can sell per year before you have to be licensed (probably 20-25)

Some sources cite that in some circumstances the number of guns you can sell per year before being licensed could be as low as two in some circumstances. To me, this suggests selective enforcement of the law to punish people buying or reselling so-called "assault weapons."
