What must an individual do to legally sell a firearm to another individual in New Hampshire?

  1. Complete a sale through a licensed firearm dealer

  2. Verify the buyer has a valid New Hampshire pistol/revolver license

  3. Nothing, private sales do not require any specific action

  4. Register the sale with the local police department

The correct answer is: Nothing, private sales do not require any specific action

In New Hampshire, private sales of firearms between two individuals do not require any specific action to be taken. Unlike some states that require background checks or sales through licensed dealers, New Hampshire law allows for private sales without the need for additional steps. This is why the correct answer is C. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because in New Hampshire, selling a firearm to another individual does not necessitate completing the sale through a licensed firearm dealer, verifying the buyer has a valid New Hampshire pistol/revolver license, or registering the sale with the local police department.
