How long do you have to complete a firearm transfer after receiving approval from a background check in Rhode Island?

  1. 7 days

  2. 30 days

  3. 60 days

  4. There is no time limit

The correct answer is: 30 days

In Rhode Island, you have 30 days to complete a firearm transfer after receiving approval from a background check. Option A, 7 days, is too short of a timeframe and may not allow enough time for the transfer to be completed. Option C, 60 days, is too long and could potentially lead to delays or misuse of the approved background check. Option D, there is no time limit, may lead to gun ownership without proper completion of the transfer process, which can result in legal consequences. Thus, the most appropriate and accurate option is B, 30 days.
