What type of background check is required for a private party gun sale in Idaho?

  1. Federal background check

  2. State background check

  3. No background check

  4. Both A and B

The correct answer is: No background check

In Idaho, private party gun sales do not require a background check. This means that individuals can sell firearms to one another without needing to conduct any form of background check, making the state distinct in terms of its gun sale regulations compared to many others where background checks are mandated for private transactions. This absence of a requirement for background checks during private sales contributes to a more streamlined process for individuals wanting to buy and sell firearms without the involvement of Federal or State authorities. It is essential for anyone participating in such transactions to still observe other relevant laws regarding firearm ownership and transfers in Idaho, but in the context of this question, the correct understanding is that no background check is required.
