Rhode Island's original 2025 assault weapons ban, set to take effect July 1, 2026, prohibited the manufacture, sale, or transfer of certain semi-automatic rifles and shotguns. However, it allowed lawful owners to possess these firearms. A new bill, S2710, introduced in February, seeks to amend the original law by adding 'possession' to the prohibited list, effectively banning possession after the July 1, 2026, deadline. This amendment would require owners to sell affected firearms to federally licensed dealers or out-of-state individuals by the end of 2026.

The discussion highlights how the Supreme Court's Bruen decision invalidates the interest-balancing tests used to justify the stay, potentially allowing standard rifles like the AR-15 to be possessed without feature restrictions in California.
