Are assault weapons banned in Rhode Island?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only certain models

  4. Only in specific cities

The correct answer is: No

While Rhode Island has strict gun laws and bans certain types of weapons such as those with a high-capacity magazine, there is no specific ban on assault weapons in the state. Option A is incorrect because while certain types of firearms may be banned in the state, it is not a blanket ban on all assault weapons. Option C is incorrect because while certain models of assault weapons may be banned, the question is asking about a ban on all assault weapons. Option D is incorrect because while some cities in Rhode Island may have their own specific bans on assault weapons, there is no statewide ban.
