Is there a waiting period for buying a firearm in South Dakota?

  1. Yes, 72 hours for all firearms

  2. Yes, but only for handguns

  3. No waiting period

  4. Yes, but only for first-time buyers

The correct answer is: No waiting period

In South Dakota, there is no waiting period for buying a firearm. This means that once all the required background checks are completed and the necessary paperwork is filled out, a person can purchase a firearm and take possession of it on the same day. This lack of a waiting period distinguishes South Dakota from some other states that do have waiting periods in place for firearm purchases.
