Which of the following firearms is banned from being sold, rented, or transferred in Maryland?

  1. All semiautomatic rifles

  2. Assault pistols

  3. Bolt-action rifles

  4. Lever-action rifles

The correct answer is: Assault pistols

B is the correct answer because assault pistols are specifically listed as a type of firearm that is banned from being sold, rented, or transferred in Maryland. A, C, and D are incorrect because they are not specifically mentioned in the ban. Although Maryland does have regulations on semiautomatic rifles, bolt-action rifles, and lever-action rifles, they are not completely banned like assault pistols are. It is important to pay attention to the language used in the question and choices when answering to ensure the most accurate response.
