What is required to legally purchase a handgun from a licensed dealer in New Hampshire?

  1. Proof of New Hampshire residency

  2. A state-issued handgun purchase permit

  3. Completion of a firearms safety course

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: Proof of New Hampshire residency

To legally purchase a handgun from a licensed dealer in New Hampshire, proof of New Hampshire residency is required. This ensures that the individual purchasing the handgun is a resident of the state and eligible to make the purchase according to New Hampshire gun laws. Options B and C are not necessary for purchasing a handgun in New Hampshire from a licensed dealer, as the state does not require a state-issued handgun purchase permit or completion of a firearms safety course for the purchase. Option D is not the correct choice because proof of New Hampshire residency is indeed a requirement for purchasing a handgun from a licensed dealer in the state.
