What is the required waiting period for taking possession of a firearm after purchase in Arkansas?

  1. No waiting period

  2. 3-day cooling-off period

  3. 10 business days

  4. Depends on the type of firearm

The correct answer is: No waiting period

In Arkansas, there is no required waiting period for taking possession of a firearm after purchase. This means that once the purchase process is completed and the background check is passed, the buyer can take the firearm home immediately. This policy aligns with the state's emphasis on Second Amendment rights and the private ownership of firearms. Other options do not apply as there are no statutory waiting periods mandated by Arkansas law, distinguishing it from some other states that may enforce cooling-off periods or specific waiting times depending on various circumstances.
