Is a background check required for private gun sales in Mississippi?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only for handguns

  4. Only for rifles and shotguns

The correct answer is: No

In Mississippi, a background check is not required for private gun sales. This means that individuals can sell or transfer firearms to each other without the need for a background check. However, it's important to note that federal law still prohibits certain individuals from purchasing or possessing firearms, so both the buyer and the seller should adhere to these regulations even though a background check is not required for private sales in Mississippi. This is why option B is the correct answer.
