What is required to sell a personal firearm in Rhode Island?

  1. A bill of sale

  2. Notification to the local police department

  3. Both A and B

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: Both A and B

In Rhode Island, it is required to have both a bill of sale and to notify the local police department when selling a personal firearm. Having a bill of sale helps keep a record of the transaction, which can be essential for both the buyer and the seller. Notifying the local police department is also important to ensure that the transfer is legal and that the firearm is not being sold to a prohibited possessor. Both requirements work together to promote safety and accountability in firearm transactions.
