Which of the following endorsements is available for a South Dakota Concealed Pistol Permit holder to bypass the NICS background check when purchasing a firearm?

  1. Hunter Education

  2. Gold Card

  3. Enhanced Permit

  4. Firearm Safety Instructor

The correct answer is: Enhanced Permit

The correct answer is C. Enhanced Permit. Obtaining an Enhanced Permit in South Dakota allows a concealed pistol permit holder to bypass the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) when purchasing a firearm. This is because the Enhanced Permit requires a more comprehensive background check compared to the regular permit, which includes a fingerprint check. This extra level of scrutiny is recognized as meeting the requirements for gun purchases without the need for a separate NICS check. This privilege is not available with other endorsements like Hunter Education, Gold Card, or Firearm Safety Instructor certifications.
