In Alaska, can you buy a rifle or shotgun from a private seller without a background check?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only at gun shows

  4. Only if the seller is a relative

The correct answer is: Yes

In Alaska, individuals can buy a rifle or shotgun from a private seller without undergoing a background check. This is because Alaska does not have a state law requiring background checks for private sales of firearms. However, it is important for individuals to exercise caution and responsibility when engaging in private firearms transactions to ensure that the seller is legally allowed to possess firearms. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the laws related to private firearm sales in Alaska.
