Bill would allow people to buy handguns in Nebraska without a background check
LINCOLN — People could buy handguns in Nebraska without a background check or paper trail under a legislative proposal offered Friday.
State Sen. John Lowe of Kearney said he introduced Legislative Bill 370 in the interest of promoting freedom.
“I believe we need some freedoms in how we purchase things,” he said, adding that several people have talked with him about the issue.
LB 370 would repeal a 26-year-old law that requires people wanting to buy, lease or otherwise get a handgun in Nebraska to apply for a certificate from their local police chief or sheriff.
