Which of the following firearms is NOT regulated under Montana's gun control laws?

  1. Semi-automatic rifles

  2. Handguns

  3. Antique firearms

  4. Shotguns

The correct answer is: Antique firearms

Antique firearms are not regulated under Montana's gun control laws because they are considered to be collector's items rather than functional weapons. Unlike semi-automatic rifles, handguns, and shotguns, antique firearms are not typically used in modern crimes and do not pose the same level of threat as other weapons. Option A, semi-automatic rifles, and option B, handguns, are both regulated in Montana and require background checks and permits for purchase. Option D, shotguns, are also regulated and require a permit for concealed carry. Therefore, the most likely reason that option C, antique firearms, is not regulated is due to their historical value and limited use in today's society.
