Excerpt
Excerpt: This report is the third edition of the Bureau of Justice Statistics document. The first edition, released in May 1996 (NCJ-160763), described procedures related to presale firearm background checks in each of the 50 States and other United States jurisdictions as of April 1996. The second edition, released in September 1997 (NCJ-165705), described procedures related to presale firearm background checks in each of the 50 States and other United States jurisdictions as of the end of 1996. This edition updates the earlier publications and describes the procedures and practices in effect as of the end of 1997. The scope of the individual State summaries has been expanded to provide information not included in the second edition. (References to “States” in this publication generally apply to a territory, commonwealth or district as well.)
