Is open carry of firearms legal in Louisiana?

  1. Yes, without any permit

  2. Yes, but only with a permit

  3. No, it's completely illegal

  4. Only in rural areas

The correct answer is: Yes, without any permit

Open carry of firearms is legal in Louisiana without any permit. This means that individuals are allowed to openly carry a firearm in most public places without having to obtain a special permit or license. Option B, which states that a permit is required, is incorrect because Louisiana does not require a permit for open carry. Option C, which claims that open carry is completely illegal, is also incorrect as open carry is allowed with no permit needed. Option D, which mentions open carry only being allowed in rural areas, is incorrect as open carry is generally permitted in all public areas in Louisiana.
