What kind of firearms registry does Arkansas have?

  1. Comprehensive registry of all firearms

  2. Handgun registry only

  3. No firearms registry

  4. Registry for assault weapons only

The correct answer is: No firearms registry

Arkansas operates with no firearms registry, meaning that there is no state requirement for individuals to register their firearms. This absence of a registry allows law-abiding citizens to purchase and own firearms without the government maintaining a record of those firearms. This aligns with the state's relatively permissive stance on gun ownership and Second Amendment rights, emphasizing personal liberties. Unlike some other states that have specific requirements to register handguns or certain types of firearms, Arkansas does not impose such regulations. Therefore, there is no comprehensive tracking system in place for any classifications of firearms, including handguns, rifles, or assault weapons. The approach reflects a belief in the importance of personal privacy concerning firearm ownership.
