What restriction exists for large capacity firearms in Massachusetts?

  1. They are banned entirely

  2. Only military and police can possess them

  3. They require a special endorsement on an LTC

  4. There are no restrictions

The correct answer is: They require a special endorsement on an LTC

In Massachusetts, large capacity firearms are subject to specific regulations that require individuals to have a special endorsement on their License to Carry (LTC). This means that while possession of these firearms is legal, it is not granted automatically to everyone. The special endorsement ensures that individuals wishing to carry or possess large capacity firearms have gone through additional training and background checks, reflecting the state's commitment to responsible gun ownership and public safety. Other options are not correct because large capacity firearms are not entirely banned, nor are they restricted solely to military and police personnel. Additionally, there are indeed restrictions in place, so it is inaccurate to say that there are no restrictions at all.
