Are background checks required for private firearm sales in New Hampshire?

  1. Yes, for all firearms

  2. No, they are not required

  3. Yes, but only for handguns

  4. Yes, but only at gun shows

The correct answer is: No, they are not required

In New Hampshire, background checks are not required for private firearm sales. This means that individuals can legally sell or transfer firearms to others privately without going through a background check process. It is important for individuals engaging in private firearm sales to still ensure that the transaction is in compliance with all other relevant state and federal laws. Option A is incorrect because background checks are not required for all firearms in private sales in New Hampshire. Option C is also incorrect as the requirement does not apply only to handguns. Option D is incorrect as background checks are not specifically required only at gun shows in the state.
