Under Oklahoma law, which one of the following is considered a prohibited weapon?

  1. Automatic rifles

  2. Shotguns with a barrel length of 18 inches or longer

  3. Handguns with a magazine capacity of 15 rounds

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: Automatic rifles

In Oklahoma, the correct classification of prohibited weapons includes automatic firearms, which are defined as those that can fire continuously with a single pull of the trigger. This means that fully automatic rifles are not permitted under state law, making option A a valid example of a prohibited weapon. Automatic rifles pose unique challenges in terms of safety and regulatory control, which is why they are heavily regulated across the United States. In contrast, shotguns with a barrel length of 18 inches or longer, as well as handguns with a magazine capacity of 15 rounds, do not fall under the category of prohibited weapons in Oklahoma. This reflects a broader regulatory perspective that allows for the ownership of these types of firearms under certain conditions.
