In Louisiana, who is responsible for enforcing gun laws?

  1. Local Police

  2. Sheriff's Office

  3. Louisiana State Police

  4. ATF

The correct answer is: Louisiana State Police

In Louisiana, the state police are responsible for enforcing gun laws because they have statewide jurisdiction and are tasked with upholding the laws and regulations of the state. While local police and the sheriff's office may also be involved in enforcing certain gun laws, they do not have the same level of authority and scope as the state police. The ATF, or Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, is a federal agency and is therefore not responsible for enforcing state-specific gun laws in Louisiana.
