Sen. Chuck Schumer on Sunday proposed new legislation to require the FBI to sign off on body armor sales to civilians.

The announcement comes one week after mass killer Connor Betts — clad in body armor — opened fire in a trendy Dayton, Ohio, neighborhood and killed nine people before he was gunned down by police.

Schumer said anyone can now buy a bulletproof vest for $185 and a tactical mask for $10 under current law, Schumer said at a press conference at his Midtown office.

“With the click of a mouse, scroll of a thumb, dialing of a phone, someone up to no good can get this,” he said. “What we have learned is that a good number of those intent on mass shootings buy body armor,” the Senate minority leader said. “They want to kill as many people as possible.”

The restrictions would not apply to law enforcement personnel.

Under current laws bulletproof vests are legal to own in all 50 states, except for convicted criminals. They can also be purchased online or by phone everywhere but Connecticut, where the law requires that the purchases be made in person.

Federal law has prohibited convicted criminals from buying body armor since 2002, and violators can face up to three years in prison.

Anyone who commits a crime while wearing body armor can also face stiffer penalties under current federal law, and most states also make it illegal to wear it while committing a crime.

In New York it’s a felony punishable by up to four years if the culprit is wearing a bulletproof vest while carrying a firearm or committing a violent crime.

Schumer said he’ll submit the new proposed law when congress reconvenes in September.

He also said he will continue to push for universal background checks for gun buyers.

“That is the most important and immediate thing we can do,” Schumer said. “If Mitch McConnell would bring that bill to pass the house bipartisan to the floor. It would pass in my judgement.”

The Dayton massacre was one of two mass shootings last weekend that left 31 people dead.

On Aug. 3 a Texas man was accused of walking into a Walmart in El Paso, Texas, with an assault rifle and killing 22 people. Patrick Crusius told police he was targeting “Mexicans.“
