This dual system allows for more comprehensive background checks and ensures that all necessary information is obtained before approving a firearm purchase. Option D, "None of the above," is incorrect because Maryland does in fact use a background check system for firearm purchases. Option A, "NICS," is incorrect because Maryland also has a state-based system. Option B, "State-based system," is incorrect because Maryland also utilizes the NICS system.
