The State That Now Requires a Permission Slip
Delaware has enacted a 'permit to purchase' law requiring individuals to obtain a Handgun Qualified Purchaser Permit before buying a handgun. This involves mandatory firearms training, fingerprinting, and a background check. While exemptions exist for concealed carry permit holders and certain law enforcement/military personnel, the law introduces significant hurdles for ordinary citizens seeking to exercise their Second Amendment rights. Private firearm sales also now require verification of the buyer's permit.
