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

Yes, for all firearm sales
No
Yes, but only for handguns
Yes, for handguns and assault weapons

The correct answer is: No

New Hampshire does not have any state laws requiring background checks for private gun sales. This means that individuals can legally sell firearms to each other without having to go through a background check. Option A is incorrect because it states that background checks are required for all firearm sales, which is not true for private sales in New Hampshire. Option C is incorrect because it suggests that background checks are only required for handguns, which is not the case in New Hampshire. Option D is incorrect because it specifies that background checks are required for handguns and assault weapons, but again, this is not the case in New Hampshire. Therefore, the correct answer is B, which states that background checks are not required for private gun sales in New Hampshire.
