What is the minimum age requirement to purchase a rifle or shotgun in Rhode Island?

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 16 years old

  4. There is no age requirement

The correct answer is: 18 years old

In Rhode Island, the minimum age requirement to purchase a rifle or shotgun is 18 years old. This is in accordance with federal law, which allows for the purchase of long guns at 18 years old. Option B is incorrect because 21 years old is the minimum age requirement for purchasing handguns in Rhode Island. Option C is incorrect because although some states allow minors to purchase rifles or shotguns with parental consent, Rhode Island is not one of them. Option D is incorrect because there is an age requirement for purchasing long guns in Rhode Island.
