Who is responsible for conducting the background checks for firearm purchases in Nebraska?

  1. Federal Bureau of Investigation

  2. Nebraska State Patrol

  3. Local County Sheriff's Office

  4. Department of Homeland Security

The correct answer is: Nebraska State Patrol

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is often responsible for conducting nationwide background checks, but in Nebraska, it is handled by the Nebraska State Patrol. The Local County Sheriff's Office may be involved in some aspects of the background check process, but they are not solely responsible for conducting the background check. The Department of Homeland Security mainly focuses on monitoring and preventing terrorist threats, so they are not involved in background checks for firearm purchases in Nebraska.
