Is a permit required to purchase a rifle or shotgun in Rhode Island?

Yes, a permit is required for all firearms
No, a permit is not required for rifles or shotguns
Yes, but only for shotguns
Yes, but only for rifles

The correct answer is: No, a permit is not required for rifles or shotguns

In Rhode Island, a permit is not required to purchase a rifle or shotgun. However, a permit is required for other types of firearms such as handguns. Option A is incorrect because it implies that a permit is required for all firearms, which is not the case in Rhode Island. Option C and D are incorrect because they specify types of firearms (shotguns and rifles) for which a permit is not required.
