Who is prohibited from owning a firearm in Rhode Island?

  1. Convicted felons

  2. Individuals under 21

  3. First-time hunters

  4. Licensed drivers

The correct answer is: Convicted felons

In Rhode Island, convicted felons are not legally allowed to own a firearm. This is because convicted felons have been found guilty of a serious crime, and owning a firearm may pose a threat to others or themselves. While B, C, and D may also have restrictions on firearm ownership in other states, they are not the correct answer for Rhode Island.
