In Maryland, when is a background check required for the sale of a firearm?

  1. Only for sales through a licensed dealer

  2. For all sales, including private sales

  3. Only for sales at gun shows

  4. No background check is required

The correct answer is: For all sales, including private sales

In Maryland, all firearm sales require a background check, regardless of whether it is sold through a licensed dealer, at a gun show, or through a private sale. This helps to ensure that firearms are not being transferred to individuals who are prohibited from owning them. Option A is incorrect because background checks are required for all sales, not just those through licensed dealers. Option C is incorrect because background checks are required for all sales, not just those at gun shows. Option D is incorrect because Maryland law requires background checks for all firearm sales.
