Buying a gun and giving it to someone who is prohibited from owning one is considered a crime?

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only a state crime

  4. Only a federal crime

The correct answer is: True

Giving a gun to someone who is prohibited from owning a firearm is considered a crime regardless of whether it is a state or federal law. This includes situations where the person is a convicted felon, a domestic abuser, or deemed mentally incompetent by a court. Thus, both state and federal laws would view this as a crime. Option B is incorrect because, as stated, giving a gun to a prohibited person is considered a crime. Option C is incorrect because it is not exclusive to state laws. Option D is incorrect because it is not exclusive to federal laws.
