What type of firearm safety certificate is required for new gun owners in Arkansas?

Arkansas Firearms Safety Certificate
No certificate is required
National Rifle Association Safety Certificate
Arkansas Hunter Education Certificate

The correct answer is: No certificate is required

New gun owners in Arkansas are not required to obtain a specific firearm safety certificate to own or possess a firearm. This reflects the state’s stance on gun ownership, which allows individuals the right to own firearms without mandatory certification or safety training. While some organizations and advocacy groups may recommend training or certification for responsible firearm ownership, and certain situations (like youth hunting) may require specific certificates, there is no law in Arkansas that mandates a certificate solely for the purpose of purchasing or owning a firearm. This decision emphasizes personal responsibility in firearm ownership and encourages education and safety training as personal choices rather than legal requirements.
