What is the legal blood alcohol concentration limit while carrying a firearm in Rhode Island?

  1. 0.08%

  2. 0.02%

  3. 0.00%

  4. There is no specific limit

The correct answer is: 0.00%

While laws vary by state, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit for carrying a firearm in Rhode Island is 0.00%. This means that any amount of alcohol in the bloodstream is considered illegal and can result in criminal charges. It is important to note that while other states may have higher BAC limits for carrying a firearm, it is always best to avoid carrying a weapon while under the influence of alcohol. Option A and B, 0.08% and 0.02% respectively, are common BAC limits for driving under the influence in some states, but they are not relevant to carrying a firearm in Rhode Island. Option D, "there is no specific limit," may seem like a plausible answer, but it is incorrect as evidenced by the strict zero tolerance policy for alcohol while carrying a firearm in this state.
