Alabama Gun Laws & Firearms Safety Practice Exam

Does Alabama have a 'red flag' law allowing courts to issue orders to temporarily seize guns from individuals deemed a threat to themselves or others?

1. Yes

2. No

3. Only during declared emergencies

4. It varies by county

The correct answer is: No

Alabama does not have a 'red flag' law. In states with 'red flag' laws, courts can issue orders to temporarily seize guns from individuals who are considered to be a danger to themselves or others. Since Alabama does not have such a law in place, the correct answer is that Alabama does not have a 'red flag' law. Although some states have imposed red flag laws only during declared emergencies, Alabama specifically does not have this legislation. It also does not vary by county, as the state as a whole does not have a 'red flag' law.
