Are private firearms sales legal in Delaware?

  1. Yes, without any requirements

  2. Yes, but a background check is required

  3. No, all sales must be through a licensed dealer

  4. Only between immediate family members

The correct answer is: Yes, but a background check is required

Private firearms sales are legal in Delaware, but a background check is required. This requirement helps ensure that individuals purchasing firearms through private sales are not prohibited from owning firearms due to previous criminal activities or other disqualifying factors. This measure aims to enhance public safety by preventing firearms from getting into the wrong hands. It is important for sellers to adhere to this requirement to abide by Delaware state law.
