In Oklahoma, who is responsible for conducting the background check required for obtaining a handgun license?

  1. The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation

  2. The Federal Bureau of Investigation

  3. Local Law Enforcement

  4. The Department of Public Safety

The correct answer is: The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation

The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) is responsible for conducting the background check required for obtaining a handgun license in Oklahoma. The OSBI is the agency responsible for collecting and maintaining criminal history records in the state. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is responsible for conducting background checks for federal firearm purchases and transfers, not for obtaining a handgun license in Oklahoma. Local law enforcement agencies may assist with the background check process, but it is ultimately the responsibility of the OSBI. The Department of Public Safety in Oklahoma does not conduct background checks for handgun licenses, as that falls under the jurisdiction of the OSBI.
