Are there exceptions to the Brady law’s requirement for a NICS check prior to a licensee’s transfer of a firearm to an unlicensed individual?
Firearm transfers are exempt from the requirement for a NICS check in 3 situations. These include transfers (a) to buyers having a state permit that has been recognized by ATF as an alternative to a NICS check; (b) of National Firearms Act weapons approved by ATF; and (c) certified by ATF as exempt because compliance with the NICS check requirement is impracticable.
