The correct answer is: No

In Alaska, background checks are not required for private gun sales. This means that individuals can legally buy and sell firearms to each other without going through a background check process. It is important for individuals engaging in private gun sales to exercise caution and ensure they are following all other state and federal laws regarding firearms transactions. Option A is incorrect because background checks are not required for all firearms in private sales in Alaska. Option C and D are incorrect because background checks are not limited to specific types of firearms in Alaska; they are not required for any type of firearm in private sales.
