In the US, you'll need a federal or state identification card (such as a drivers licence). If you're buying a regular Title I long gun (rifle or shotgun), it's pretty simple. All paperwork you need to fill out is provided by the dealer. If you're buying it in a state other than your own, you may be required to show proof of residence at the address shown on your licence.

Handgun purchases vary from state to state. Some states first require you to purchase pistol permits, and some do not.

Any gun shop can inform you of any additional requirements in your state.
