What is the mandatory safety course requirement for first-time firearm license applicants in Massachusetts?

  1. NRA basic pistol course

  2. Massachusetts Basic Firearms Safety Course

  3. Hunter education course

  4. None

The correct answer is: Massachusetts Basic Firearms Safety Course

The Massachusetts Basic Firearms Safety Course is the mandatory safety course requirement for first-time firearm license applicants in Massachusetts. This course covers the basics of handling and using firearms, as well as state-specific laws and regulations. Option A, the NRA basic pistol course, is not necessarily required in Massachusetts and may not cover all the necessary topics for state licensure. Option C, the hunter education course, may cover some important safety aspects but may not address the specific requirements for obtaining a firearm license. Option D, none, is incorrect as a safety course is required for first-time applicants.
