Is it legal to openly carry a firearm in Louisiana?

  1. Yes, without any permit

  2. Yes, but only with a permit

  3. No, it's entirely illegal

  4. Yes, but only during hunting season

The correct answer is: Yes, without any permit

In Louisiana, it is legal to openly carry a firearm without a permit. However, this does not mean that anyone can carry a firearm at any time. Individuals who have been prohibited by law from owning or carrying a firearm, or who are under the influence of drugs or alcohol, are not allowed to openly carry a firearm. Additionally, individuals cannot openly carry a firearm in certain locations such as schools, churches, and government buildings. Therefore, options B, C, and D are incorrect because they mention restrictions or limitations that do not apply to Louisiana's open carry laws.
