In Utah, who is responsible for enforcing the laws related to firearms?

Local Police
Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification (BCI)
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF)

The correct answer is: Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification (BCI)

The Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification (BCI) is responsible for enforcing the laws related to firearms in Utah. The BCI oversees firearm background checks, issues concealed firearm permits, and maintains firearm-related criminal history records in the state. While local police may enforce firearms laws within their jurisdictions, the primary responsibility in Utah lies with the BCI. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) are federal agencies primarily involved in enforcing federal firearms laws, not state-specific regulations in Utah.
