What does South Dakota law require to purchase a firearm from a private seller?

  1. Background check

  2. Concealed carry permit

  3. Firearms safety course completion certificate

  4. No requirement for private sales

The correct answer is: No requirement for private sales

In South Dakota, there is no requirement for a background check when purchasing a firearm from a private seller. Private sales of firearms in the state do not mandate the same background check process that licensed firearm dealers must adhere to. This means that individuals can buy or sell firearms in a private transaction without needing to go through a background check. This exemption applies specifically to private sales and transfers of firearms in South Dakota, distinguishing them from transactions involving licensed dealers where background checks are required.
