Which type of firearm is prohibited from being owned or used in Alaska?

Semi-automatic weapons
Handguns with a barrel length shorter than 3 inches
Machine guns without proper federal registration
Rifles with a magazine capacity of 10 rounds or more

The correct answer is: Machine guns without proper federal registration

Machine guns without proper federal registration are prohibited from being owned or used in Alaska. The National Firearms Act regulates the ownership and transfer of machine guns, requiring them to be registered with the federal government. Without proper federal registration, owning or using a machine gun is illegal. The other options listed are not entirely prohibited under Alaska gun laws. Semi-automatic weapons, handguns with a barrel length shorter than 3 inches, and rifles with a magazine capacity of 10 rounds or more can be legally owned and used in Alaska, as long as individuals comply with state and federal regulations.
