What is required to purchase a firearm from a private seller in New Hampshire?

  1. Completion of a firearms safety course

  2. A permit to purchase

  3. Passing a background check

  4. No specific requirements

The correct answer is: No specific requirements

Private sellers in New Hampshire are not required to conduct a background check or obtain any permits for the sale or transfer of a firearm. However, it is important to note that federal law still applies and prohibits the sale of firearms to certain individuals, such as convicted felons or those deemed mentally unfit. Options A and B, while good practices for responsible gun ownership, are not mandatory for private sales. Option C is incorrect as there is no background check requirement for private sellers in New Hampshire.
