Under South Dakota law, is a permit required to purchase a handgun?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only for residents

  4. Only for non-residents

The correct answer is: No

In South Dakota, a permit is not required to purchase a handgun. The state law allows residents who are at least 21 years old to purchase a handgun from a federally licensed firearms dealer without the need for a permit. However, individuals are still subject to federal background checks at the time of purchase. Residents who wish to carry a concealed handgun in South Dakota would need to obtain a permit to carry a concealed weapon, but this is separate from the purchase of a handgun itself.
