Are background checks required for private gun sales in South Dakota?

  1. Yes, for all gun sales

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only for handguns

  4. Yes, but only at gun shows

The correct answer is: No

In South Dakota, background checks are not required for private gun sales. This means that individuals who are selling or purchasing firearms in private transactions are not legally obligated to undergo background checks. This distinction is important as it highlights the difference between private sales and sales through licensed dealers, where background checks are mandatory.
