A semi-automatic centre-fire rifle may legally have how many cartridges in its magazine?

  1. 5

  2. 10

  3. 15

  4. 20

The correct answer is: 10

Explanation A semi-automatic centre-fire rifle is a type of firearm that reloads automatically after each shot and uses ammunition with a centerfire primer. According to federal law in the United States, the maximum number of cartridges allowed in a magazine for a semi-automatic centerfire rifle is 10. Cartridges, also known as rounds or bullets, are the individual units of ammunition that are loaded into a firearm's magazine. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they exceed the legal limit of 10 cartridges and therefore would not be allowed for a semi-automatic centerfire rifle. It is important to adhere to this law to ensure the safety and compliance of firearms.
