What type of firearms are Massachusetts residents prohibited from owning without a special permit?

Handguns

Semi-automatic rifles

Assault weapons

In Massachusetts, residents are required to obtain a special permit for ownership of assault weapons. A handugun, semi-automatic rifle, or shotgun can be legally owned with just a firearm identification (FID) card, but assault weapons fall under a separate category. This is due to the state's strict gun laws and regulations. Therefore, the possession and ownership of handguns, semi-automatic rifles, and shotguns does not require a special permit, but the ownership of assault weapons does. The other options are incorrect because they do not require a special permit.
