What type of firearm background check system does Wyoming use for private gun sales?

Federal NICS
State-run system
No background check required
Local law enforcement check

The correct answer is: No background check required

Wyoming does not require background checks for private gun sales, making option C the correct answer. In Wyoming, private sellers are not mandated to conduct background checks on buyers before selling firearms. This system differs from states that use the Federal NICS (National Instant Criminal Background Check System) for background checks on all gun sales, including private transactions. Additionally, Wyoming does not have a designated state-run system or rely on local law enforcement checks for private sales.
