Overview

Nebraska's gun laws reflect a blend of traditional support for Second Amendment rights with specific regulatory measures designed to promote public safety. As a largely rural and conservative state, Nebraska generally supports the right of individuals to own and carry firearms. However, state law also includes defined parameters that gun owners must follow. In recent years, Nebraska has moved toward more permissive policies. As of 2023, Nebraska adopted constitutional carry, allowing eligible individuals to carry concealed handguns without a permit. This marked a significant shift in the state's firearms policy, reflecting a broader national trend among several states. Despite this, Nebraska still enforces certain restrictions. For example, individuals must meet age and legal eligibility requirements to purchase or possess firearms. There are also specific limitations concerning possession by felons, individuals with certain mental health adjudications, and others deemed prohibited under state or federal law. Local jurisdictions, such as Omaha, may have additional rules-especially regarding handgun registration and transportation-though recent state-level legislation has aimed to limit the ability of local governments to impose stricter firearm ordinances than the state. Understanding Nebraska's gun laws requires attention to both state statutes and evolving legislative developments. Whether one is a gun owner, seller, or simply a concerned citizen, knowing the legal framework helps ensure responsible and lawful firearm use.
