In Alabama, which one of the following firearms is specifically restricted?

  1. Sawed-off shotguns

  2. Semi-automatic rifles

  3. Bolt-action rifles

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: Sawed-off shotguns

In Alabama, sawed-off shotguns are specifically restricted. This means that individuals in Alabama are not allowed to possess or use sawed-off shotguns as they are considered illegal firearms in the state. Sawed-off shotguns have barrels that have been shortened to less than 18 inches in length or have an overall length of less than 26 inches. This restriction is in place to help regulate the use of such firearms due to their increased potential for being used in criminal activities.
