Under Massachusetts law, which of the following is considered a proper reason for denying an LTC or FID?

It is important to note that A and B may be reasons for denial of an LTC or FID depending on certain circumstances. For example, if an individual does not have proper storage facilities, this could be seen as a safety concern and may result in a denial. Similarly, if an individual fails a firearms safety course, they may not be deemed responsible enough to handle a firearm. However, these reasons alone may not automatically lead to a denial. Option D is incorrect because it includes all of the above reasons, which is not always the case. Not having proper storage or failing a safety course does not necessarily mean that an individual is under a permanent restraining order. Additionally, option D implies that there are no other valid reasons for denial, which is not true. There could be other factors, such as a criminal record or mental health issues, that could also result in a denial. Therefore, option C is the correct answer as it specifically states a valid reason for denial under Massachusetts law.
