South Dakota Gun Laws & Firearms Safety Practice Exam

Local governments in South Dakota are not allowed to enact their own firearms laws that are stricter than state law. This is because state law preempts local laws, meaning that when there is a conflict between state and local laws, state law takes precedence. Option A is incorrect because there are restrictions on local governments enacting their own laws. Option B is incorrect because state approval is not necessary for local governments to enact their own laws, but they still cannot be stricter than state law. Option D is incorrect because state law does specify that local governments are not allowed to have stricter firearms laws.
