Are assault weapons banned in Vermont?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Yes, but with grandfathering provisions for existing ones

  4. Yes, but only for sale, not possession

The correct answer is: No

Vermont law does not classify assault weapons as a prohibited category, allowing the ownership and purchase of these firearms under state regulations. This means that while there are various gun control laws in place, assault weapons are not banned outright in the state. Additionally, Vermont allows the possession, sale, and transfer of these firearms as long as other laws regarding firearms, such as background checks and restrictions on certain individuals, are followed. This legal framework stands in contrast to some other states that have enacted specific bans on assault weapons, which contributes to the clarity in Vermont’s approach towards their regulation.
