Is a background check required for private gun sales in New Hampshire?

  1. Yes, for all firearms

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only for handguns

  4. Yes, but only for rifles and shotguns

The correct answer is: No

In New Hampshire, a background check is not required for private gun sales. This makes option B the correct choice. It is essential for individuals in New Hampshire to be aware of this law when engaging in private firearms transactions. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they suggest that a background check is required for all firearms, only for handguns, or only for rifles and shotguns in private sales, which is not the case according to New Hampshire state law.
