Which of the following firearms is illegal to possess in Massachusetts without a proper license?

Air rifles
Shotguns with a capacity over 5 rounds
Non-large capacity rifles
All of the above

The correct answer is: Shotguns with a capacity over 5 rounds

In Massachusetts, it is illegal to possess a shotgun with a capacity over 5 rounds without a proper license. Air rifles and non-large capacity rifles are legal to possess without a license. Therefore, Option B is the only correct answer. Option A is incorrect because air rifles are not illegal to possess, as long as they are not used for hunting or target practice without a license. Option C is incorrect because non-large capacity rifles are also legal to possess without a license. Option D is incorrect because only shotguns with a capacity over 5 rounds are illegal without a proper license.
