AMGOA Staff The federal government has approved the 'gold card' and enhanced concealed carry permits that will allow South Dakota residents to purchase firearms without a background check. The legislature created the gold card permit program during the 2016 legislative session and the enhanced carry provisions the year before. Attorney General Marty Jackley announced Friday that both programs had been approved as alternatives to background checks by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms this week. To get the gold concealed carry permit, residents must pay a $70 fee plus $43.25 for fingerprinting and pass a federal background check. The enhanced permit requires the fingerprinting and FBI background check, a $100 fee and the completion of a firearms safety course. http://www.argusleader.com/story/news/2017/02/24/feds-approve-gold-card-gun-permits/98350064/ |
