Are background checks required for private gun sales in Arizona?

Yes, for all sales
No
Yes, but only for handguns
Yes, for all sales except between family members

The correct answer is: No

In Arizona, background checks are not mandated for private gun sales. This means that individuals can sell firearms to each other without going through a licensed dealer or a formal background check process. The law primarily focuses on regulated sales by dealers, which require background checks, but allows private transactions to occur without such requirements. While there are exceptions in certain circumstances or for specific types of firearms in other states, Arizona maintains a more permissive stance regarding private transfers. This facilitates greater accessibility for individuals looking to buy or sell firearms among private parties without additional legal barriers.
