Nebraska laws
In Nebraska, to purchase a handgun, a permit to purchase is required. Rifles and shotguns are not subject to gun laws more restrictive than those at the federal level. As of January 1, 2007, Nebraska became the 48th state to legalize concealed carry; permits to carry are being issued by the Nebraska State Patrol. NFA firearms (machine guns, short barreled shotguns, short barreled rifles, and silencers) are legal to own as long as they are compliant with federal law. Open carry is allowed without a permit. On September 2nd, 2023, state preemption and constitutional carry take effect, invalidating local open carry restrictions and allowing concealed carry without a permit. Residents of the city of Omaha were required to register their handguns, unless that resident possessed a State of Nebraska Concealed Handgun Permit. This ended September 2nd 2023, with the enactment of full firearm preemption. In Lincoln, municipal code section 9.36.100 prohibits the possession of a firearm by anyone who has been convicted of certain misdemeanors within the last ten years. These include stalking, violation of an order of protection, impersonating a police officer, and public indecency. The Lancaster County Sheriff will not issue a Nebraska permit to purchase a handgun if the applicant is a Lincoln resident and is prohibited by this law from possessing firearms. Some counties have adopted Second Amendment sanctuary resolutions. See also
