Under Montana law, is it legal for a non-resident to purchase a firearm in the state?

Yes, but only long guns
Yes, both handguns and long guns
No, non-residents cannot purchase firearms
Yes, but they must pass a background check first

The correct answer is: Yes, but only long guns

While purchasing a long gun as a non-resident may be legal under Montana law, the other choices are incorrect. Option B states that non-residents can purchase both handguns and long guns, but this is not true. Option C is completely false, as non-residents can purchase long guns. Option D states that non-residents can purchase a firearm as long as they pass a background check, but this is not specified in the question and therefore cannot be assumed to be true. Therefore, the correct answer is A, that non-residents can legally purchase long guns in Montana.
