What is required to lawfully transfer a firearm between private parties in South Dakota?

  1. Completion of a background check

  2. Notification of the local police department

  3. A bill of sale

  4. No specific requirement

The correct answer is: No specific requirement

In South Dakota, there are no specific legal requirements for transferring a firearm between private parties. This means that completing a background check, notifying the police department, and having a bill of sale are not necessary in order to lawfully transfer a firearm. However, it is important to note that both parties must still meet all federal and state requirements for firearms ownership, such as being legally allowed to possess a firearm and not being prohibited by law from owning one.
