What is the legal BAC limit for carrying a firearm in Massachusetts?

  1. 0.08%

  2. 0.05%

  3. 0.02%

  4. There is no specific limit

The correct answer is: 0.02%

In Massachusetts, the legal BAC limit for carrying a firearm is 0.02%. This is because the state has strict laws regarding the combination of alcohol and firearms, as both can impair judgment and decision making abilities. Option A (0.08%) is the legal BAC limit for driving a vehicle in Massachusetts, but this does not apply to carrying a firearm. Option B (0.05%) is the legal BAC limit for driving in some other states, but not in Massachusetts. Option D states that there is no specific limit, but as mentioned before, Massachusetts does have a specific limit for carrying a firearm while under the influence of alcohol.
