What is the legal blood alcohol content limit while carrying a firearm in Rhode Island?

0.00%
0.02%
0.08%
There is no specified limit

The correct answer is: 0.08%

In Rhode Island, the legal blood alcohol content (BAC) limit for carrying a firearm is 0.08%, which is the same limit for operating a vehicle. This means that it is illegal to possess or carry a firearm while under the influence of alcohol to the extent that one's BAC is 0.08% or higher. Option A, 0.00%, is incorrect as it implies that any amount of alcohol in one's system is not allowed while carrying a firearm, which is not true according to Rhode Island law. Option B, 0.02%, is also incorrect as it is a lower BAC limit than the legal limit for operating a vehicle, which is not consistent with Rhode Island law. Option D, there is no specified limit, is incorrect as there is clearly a specified limit in Rhode Island for carrying a firearm while under the influence of alcohol.
