Is a background check required when purchasing a firearm from a gun show in Montana?

Yes, for all transactions
No, Montana does not require it
Yes, but only for handguns
Yes, but only for private sales

The correct answer is: No, Montana does not require it

Background checks for purchasing firearms at gun shows vary by state. In Montana, there is no state law that requires a background check for purchasing a firearm at a gun show. Option A is incorrect because not all transactions require a background check in Montana. Option C is incorrect because it specifies that only handguns require a background check, which is not the case in Montana. Option D is incorrect because while some private sales in Montana do require background checks, this is not limited to gun shows. Therefore, the correct answer is B, as Montana does not require a background check for firearm purchases at gun shows.
