As of the latest legislation, does South Dakota require a waiting period for purchasing a firearm?

  1. Yes, a 3-day waiting period

  2. Yes, a 7-day waiting period

  3. No waiting period is required

  4. Waiting period is determined by county

The correct answer is: No waiting period is required

In South Dakota, no waiting period is currently required for purchasing a firearm. This means that once all required background checks are completed and the purchaser meets all criteria, they can take possession of the firearm immediately. Option A and B are incorrect because South Dakota does not have a 3-day or 7-day waiting period. Option D is also incorrect as the waiting period is not determined by county but rather there is no waiting period at all in the state.
