How long is the waiting period for purchasing a firearm in Rhode Island?

There is no waiting period
7 days
14 days
10 days

The correct answer is: 7 days

In Rhode Island, the correct answer is that there is a 7-day waiting period for purchasing a firearm. During this waiting period, a background check is conducted to ensure the buyer meets all the requirements to own a firearm. This waiting period allows for thorough checks to be completed before the firearm is transferred to the buyer. The other options are incorrect because: - Option A states that there is no waiting period, which is not accurate for Rhode Island. - Option C and D mention waiting periods of 14 days and 10 days, respectively, which are also not in line with the actual waiting period in Rhode Island.
