What must individuals do to acquire a firearm legally in Massachusetts?

Pass a background check
Complete a firearm safety course
Both A and B
Neither A nor B

The correct answer is: Both A and B

Acquiring a firearm legally in Massachusetts requires passing a background check and completing a firearm safety course. Both options are necessary and neither one alone fulfills the requirements for legal ownership. Option A alone would not cover the safety training aspect, while option B alone would not address the background check. Therefore, a combination of both is necessary to legally acquire a firearm in Massachusetts. The other options, D and C, are incorrect because they do not fulfill both requirements.
