Can you tell me the general process for purchasing a firearm in the US?

In the US, the process for purchasing a firearm varies among states but typically includes the following steps: completing a background check, providing a valid firearm-specific license (if required by the state), being at least 18 years old, paying relevant fees and taxes, receiving a safety training, taking a firearms safety test, and completing a paperwork verification process.
