Is it legal to possess a machine gun in West Virginia?

  1. Yes, without restrictions

  2. Yes, but only with a federal license

  3. No

  4. Yes, but it must be registered with the state

The correct answer is: Yes, but only with a federal license

While West Virginia does not have any state-specific laws regarding machine guns, possession of a machine gun is still regulated by federal law. This means that in order to legally possess a machine gun in West Virginia, one must obtain a federal license. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not account for the federal requirements.
