Are assault weapons banned in Rhode Island?

Yes, all assault weapons are banned
No, there is no ban on assault weapons
Yes, but only certain models are banned
It varies by city and county

The correct answer is: No, there is no ban on assault weapons

While some states have passed legislation banning certain models of assault weapons, there is no statewide ban on assault weapons in Rhode Island. This means that individuals can legally possess and purchase assault weapons in Rhode Island. Option A is incorrect because it states that all assault weapons are banned, which is not the case in Rhode Island. Option C is also incorrect because it only mentions a ban on certain models of assault weapons, which does not apply to Rhode Island. Option D is incorrect because it does not specify that the ban varies by city and county within Rhode Island, implying that there is a ban across the entire state. Only option B accurately states that there is no statewide ban on assault weapons in Rhode Island.
