What is required to legally purchase a firearm in South Carolina?

South Carolina ID
Background check
Proof of firearms training
Both A and B

The correct answer is: Both A and B

In order to legally purchase a firearm in South Carolina, both a South Carolina ID and a background check are required. The South Carolina ID serves as proof of residency, while the background check ensures that the individual does not have a criminal history that would legally prohibit them from owning a firearm. Proof of firearms training is not required by South Carolina law, but may be required by certain retailers or private sellers. Therefore, while options A, B, and C may all seem like valid choices, the correct answer is D due to the combination of a South Carolina ID and background check being necessary.
