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

  1. State-based system only

  2. Federal NICS only

  3. Both state-based system and NICS

  4. Vermont does not require background checks

The correct answer is: Both state-based system and NICS

Vermont uses both a state-based background check system and the federal NICS system for firearm purchases from licensed dealers. This means that both state and federal records are checked before a purchase can be completed. Option A and B are incorrect because Vermont does not rely on only a state-based system or only the federal NICS system. Option D is incorrect because Vermont does require background checks for firearm purchases.
