A person can purchase a gun without a permit in certain states if the purchase is made through a private seller, who is not required to conduct a background check. Some gun stores also sell guns to people without a permit in certain states. In addition, guns can also be bought or obtained from black market dealers, who may not ask for a permit. Lastly, some individuals have successfully defended themselves with a gun while the authorities were on their way, resulting in a legal weapon that was never properly registered.
