  1. All first-time applicants

  2. Only applicants under 21

  3. Only applicants for a concealed carry permit

  4. Non-residents only

The correct answer is: All first-time applicants

All first-time applicants in Massachusetts are required to complete a firearms safety course before applying for a firearms license. This requirement is in place to ensure that anyone seeking a firearms license in the state has a solid understanding of firearm safety practices, laws, and regulations. By completing the course, applicants are better prepared to handle firearms responsibly and safely. Options B, C, and D are not correct as they do not reflect the full scope of individuals who are mandated to take the firearms safety course in Massachusetts.
