Apologies in advance for any redundant questions but here we are.
Good friend of mine is a RI resident. They have had their green card (immigration) for I believe a couple of years now. They have come shooting with me a few times and reached out about wanted to buy a pistol and possibly a rifle in RI.
My quick precursory searching leads me to believe a plain Jane RI resident can buy/possess a rifle with nothing other than a state ID/residency.
Pistol requires a permit to buy/possess and possibly a second/different permit to concealed carry?
1) Is that correct?
2) Does/How does a green card modify things?
3) Yes I’m advising my friend to connect with knowledgeable counsel to get the ground truth and establish that relationship ahead of time. Just figured I’d throw the question out to the brain trust in the interim.
TIA
