Who is responsible for conducting background checks on firearms purchasers in Nebraska?

  1. The FBI

  2. Nebraska State Police

  3. Local law enforcement agencies

  4. The Department of Homeland Security

The correct answer is: Nebraska State Police

In the state of Nebraska, conducting background checks on firearms purchasers is covered by Nebraska State Police. The FBI does not handle this task within the state, as it is the responsibility of the individual state to conduct these checks. Local law enforcement agencies may also assist in the process, but ultimately it falls under the jurisdiction of the Nebraska State Police. The Department of Homeland Security may be involved in federal background checks in certain cases, but not for all firearms purchases in the state of Nebraska.
