Are background checks required for private gun sales in Alabama?

  1. Yes, for all sales

  2. No, but recommended

  3. Yes, but only for handguns

  4. No, background checks are not required

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

In Alabama, background checks are not required for private gun sales. This means that individuals can buy and sell firearms between each other without the need for background checks, unlike in licensed firearm dealers where background checks are mandatory. It is crucial for individuals engaging in private gun sales to exercise caution and ensure that they are complying with all other relevant state and federal laws, even though background checks are not required for such transactions in Alabama.
