Is it legal to possess a firearm while under the influence of alcohol or drugs in New Hampshire?

Yes
No
Only if not carrying publicly
Only below certain BAC levels

The correct answer is: No

In New Hampshire, it is illegal to possess a firearm while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Doing so poses a significant risk to both the individual and others around them, as impaired judgment and coordination can lead to accidents or dangerous situations. This law is in place to ensure the safe and responsible handling of firearms to prevent harm and protect public safety. Option A is incorrect because it is not legal to possess a firearm while under the influence. Option C is incorrect as the law does not differentiate between carrying publicly or privately when it comes to being under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Option D is incorrect because there are no specified blood alcohol concentration (BAC) levels that make it legal to possess a firearm while under the influence in New Hampshire.
