Are background checks required for private gun sales in Mississippi?

  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 Mississippi, background checks are not required for private gun sales. Individuals can engage in private transactions for firearms without going through a background check, unlike sales through licensed gun dealers which do require background checks. This exemption from background checks for private gun sales is an important distinction in Mississippi gun laws.
