Is a permit required to purchase a handgun in Wyoming?

  1. Yes, always

  2. Yes, but only for residents

  3. No, but background check is required

  4. No, not required

The correct answer is: No, not required

In Wyoming, a permit is not required to purchase a handgun. Wyoming is considered a permitless carry state, which means that individuals are not required to obtain a permit to purchase, own, or carry a firearm. It is important to note that while a permit is not required for purchasing a handgun in Wyoming, federal law still requires a background check to be conducted through a licensed firearms dealer before any firearm purchase.
