Are background checks required for private firearm sales in Ohio?

  1. Yes, for all firearm sales

  2. Yes, but only for handgun sales

  3. No, background checks are not required

  4. Yes, but only for sales at gun shows

The correct answer is: No, background checks are not required

In Ohio, background checks are only required for purchases from licensed firearms dealers. Private sales, such as between two individuals, do not require background checks. This means that options A, B, and D, which state that background checks are required for some or all firearm sales, are incorrect. It is important to note that although background checks are not required for private sales, it is still a good idea to conduct one for safety purposes.
