Is a background check required for all firearm purchases at gun shows in Utah?

  1. Yes, for all purchases

  2. Yes, but only for handguns

  3. No, private sellers are not required to conduct background checks

  4. No, gun show purchases are exempt from background checks

The correct answer is: No, private sellers are not required to conduct background checks

Background checks are not required for all firearm purchases at gun shows in Utah. Private sellers are not required by law to conduct background checks. If the option stated that background checks were required for purchases from licensed dealers or federally licensed firearm dealers, that would also be incorrect because under federal law, licensed dealers must perform background checks on individuals who purchase firearms from them.
