Question: 1 / 300

Is a background check required for private firearm sales in DC?

Yes, for all firearm sales

In Washington D.C., a background check is required for all firearm sales, whether they are conducted by licensed dealers or through private sales. This law is in place to ensure that firearms do not end up in the hands of individuals who are prohibited from possessing them, such as those with a history of violent crimes or mental health issues. Therefore, option A is the correct choice.
