Rhode Island lawmakers passed an assault-style weapons ban late Friday, capping off the final day of the 2025 legislative session.

The bill cleared the Senate 25–11, and shortly after, the House followed with a 43–28 vote. It now heads to Governor Dan McKee—who publicly showed his support on social media, thanking lawmakers for “taking meaningful action to keep Rhode Islanders safe.”

The legislation bans the manufacture, sale, purchase, or transfer of certain semi-automatic fi****ms considered “military-style,” including AR-15s, AK-style rifles, and some shotguns with fixed magazines holding more than six rounds.

What’s allowed?
Current legal owners can keep their weapons. Law enforcement and federally licensed dealers are exempt and allowed to transfer fi****ms out of state or to other dealers.

Violations could mean:
Up to 10 years in prison, a $10,000 fine, and seizure of the weapon.

The bill was amended to narrow definitions and remove a proposed gun registration requirement. A voluntary registration option was also scrapped in the final version.

The Bill was introduced by: Senators DiPalma, Lawson, Gallo, Sosnowski, LaMountain, Felag,
Murray, Vargas, McKenney, and Lauria
Gun safety advocates celebrated the vote as a major victory. If signed, the law will take effect on July 1, 2026.
