Are private firearm sales between individuals allowed in Vermont without a background check?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only for shotguns and rifles

  4. Yes, but not for handguns

The correct answer is: No

Private firearm sales between individuals are not allowed in Vermont without a background check. While Vermont does not have a specific law that requires background checks for all firearm sales, they do have a "restrictions on the transfer of firearms" law which states that all firearm sales must be conducted through a licensed dealer, who will then perform a background check. Therefore, options A, C, and D are all incorrect because they imply that private firearm sales are allowed in Vermont without a background check.
