Can you open carry a handgun in Alabama without a permit?

  1. Yes, without restrictions

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only in rural areas

  4. Yes, but the firearm must be unloaded

The correct answer is: Yes, without restrictions

In Alabama, individuals are allowed to open carry a handgun without a permit. This means that as long as you are legally allowed to possess a firearm, you can openly carry a handgun in various public places throughout the state without the need for a permit. This distinguishes Alabama from some other states that require a permit for open carry. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because Alabama law permits individuals to open carry handguns without the need for a permit, regardless of whether it is in rural areas, loaded, or unloaded.
