What type of background check is required for a firearm purchase from a licensed dealer in Utah?

  1. No background check is required

  2. State-level background check only

  3. Federal NICS background check

  4. Both state-level and federal NICS background checks

The correct answer is: Federal NICS background check

For a firearm purchase from a licensed dealer in Utah, a Federal NICS background check is required. This background check is conducted by the FBI to determine if the individual is eligible under federal and state law to purchase a firearm. It is important to note that both state-level and federal background checks may be conducted in addition to the NICS check, depending on the specific laws of the state. However, in the case of Utah, the correct answer is the Federal NICS background check.
