Who is responsible for issuing a License to Carry (LTC) in the state of Massachusetts?

  1. The Department of Public Safety

  2. Local Police Department

  3. The Sheriff's Office

  4. Massachusetts State Police

The correct answer is: Local Police Department

In the state of Massachusetts, the License to Carry (LTC) is issued by the Local Police Department. The other options are incorrect because - The Department of Public Safety is responsible for overseeing public safety and emergency management, but not licenses for carrying firearms. - The Sheriff's Office may issue licenses for carrying firearms in certain counties, but not in the entire state of Massachusetts. - The Massachusetts State Police may assist in the application process for a LTC, but they are not responsible for issuing the license itself.
