What is the mandatory step before purchasing a handgun in Delaware?

  1. Background check

  2. Safety course completion

  3. Interview with local police

  4. No steps required

The correct answer is: Background check

Before purchasing a handgun in Delaware, a background check is mandatory. This is to ensure that the person buying the handgun does not have a criminal record or history of violence that would make them ineligible to own a firearm. While safety courses and interviews with local police may also be recommended or required, they are not the mandatory step. Option D, stating that no steps are required, is incorrect as purchasing a handgun legally requires certain steps to be taken.
