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

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only if it is unloaded

  4. Only in rural areas

The correct answer is: Yes

In Alabama, you can openly carry a handgun without a permit. The state allows for both open carry and concealed carry of firearms without a permit for anyone who is legally allowed to possess a firearm. Alabama is a "shall issue" state for concealed carry permits, but a permit is not required for open carry. Remember to always follow all federal, state, and local laws and regulations regarding the possession and carrying of firearms.
