Which of the following is a requirement to purchase a firearm in Utah?

Utah residency
Completion of a firearms safety course
Passing a criminal background check
A recommendation letter

The correct answer is: Passing a criminal background check

In Utah, passing a criminal background check is a requirement to purchase a firearm. This check is conducted to ensure that the individual is not prohibited by law from owning a firearm due to reasons such as felony convictions, domestic violence restraining orders, or other legal restrictions. This step aims to promote public safety and prevent firearms from ending up in the wrong hands. Options A, B, and D are not mandatory requirements to purchase a firearm in Utah. Utah residency is not a requirement, although there may be certain restrictions for out-of-state residents. While completing a firearms safety course is highly recommended for responsible gun ownership, it is not a legal requirement in Utah to purchase a firearm. Additionally, a recommendation letter is not needed as part of the purchasing process.
