In many states, it's perfectly legal to sell a gun between individuals with no paperwork.
In the United States, some private sales and gun shows may allow individuals to purchase firearms without undergoing a background check, depending on state laws. However, it's important to note that laws vary significantly by state, and purchasing a gun without a background check can lead to legal consequences. Always make sure to understand and comply with local regulations before attempting to buy a firearm.

Well, this answer takes a slight clarification. The "gun permit background check" is just a basic criminal background check, basically the same as you get any other time you need a criminal background check. What shows up is your criminal record. Typically, they look for felonies and disqualifying misdemeanors. In the U.S. each state sets its own rules and conditions for gun permit approval, so what they look for depends on the state. In Tennessee, for instance, they check for felonies, misdemeanors involving domestic violence, and DUI arrests for the last 5 years.

Yes, with the exception of some people that have a type of gun license where they have already had a background check.Yes. With the exception of people that have already had a background check, all dealers are required by Federal law to conduct a background check.

You can go to a gun shop and purchase it there, or you can go online and get it from a website. Note that there are restrictions for carrying taser in SOME cities and states. Always check your state or city restrictions before purchasing one. You can also buy them at gun shows, pawn shops, some outdoors shops and again, online.
