Does Montana have a red flag law that allows temporary confiscation of firearms?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only in cases of domestic violence

  4. Only with a court order

The correct answer is: No

Montana does not have a red flag law that permits the temporary confiscation of firearms. This means that law enforcement or family members in Montana cannot petition for the removal of firearms from a person deemed to be a danger to themselves or others without specific statutory provisions that apply broadly to red flag laws. Instead, the state's laws focus more on traditional forms of firearm regulations and do not include the mechanisms typically associated with red flag laws seen in other states, which often involve court hearings and due process. The absence of such a law highlights Montana's approach to gun rights and the complexities surrounding the balance between Second Amendment rights and public safety issues.
