Are silencers legal in New Hampshire?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only for hunting

  4. Only for law enforcement and military

The correct answer is: Yes

Evidence to support this answer can be found in the New Hampshire Division of Weapons and Explosives' regulations, which state that "possession and use of silencers on firearms is legal in New Hampshire." Option B is incorrect because it suggests that silencers are never legal in New Hampshire, which is not the case. Option C is incorrect because it limits the use of silencers to only hunting purposes, but silencers are legal for use in other recreational or self-defense scenarios. Option D is incorrect because it implies that only certain individuals, such as law enforcement and military personnel, can possess and use silencers in New Hampshire, which is not the case for the general public.
