What type of background check system does Arizona use for firearm purchases from licensed dealers?

State-based background check
NICS
Both A and B
No background checks are done

The correct answer is: NICS

The correct answer is B NICS. Arizona uses the National Instant Criminal Background System (NICS) for firearm purchases from licensed dealers. This is a federal background check system that conducts a check of the buyer's criminal history, mental health records, and other disqualifying factors. Both A and D are incorrect because Arizona does not use a state-based background check system, but rather relies on the federal NICS system. Option D is incorrect because background checks are required for firearm purchases from licensed dealers in Arizona.
