Andrew wants to buy a gun for target shooting. He went to the gun shop near his home and picked out a gun he liked. He submitted the application to the state requesting approval to purchase a gun. Several weeks later he was approved because he did not have a criminal record. He paid for the gun and took it home.
What part does the U.S. Constitution play in this scenario?
It safeguards the right to buy and own guns for individuals who follow the law.
It makes sure people do not make hasty decisions about owning guns by creating a waiting period.
It protects the rights of shopkeepers by making sure they are not implicated in criminal activities.
It requires that criminals not be allowed to own guns for six months after their release from prison.
