In Alabama, is it legal to carry a firearm in a vehicle without a permit?

  1. Yes, anywhere in the vehicle

  2. Yes, but only if it is in plain view

  3. Yes, but only if it is unloaded and locked away

  4. No, it is not legal

The correct answer is: Yes, but only if it is unloaded and locked away

It is important to note that the laws for carrying a firearm in a vehicle vary from state to state. While it may be legal to carry a firearm in a vehicle without a permit in Alabama, there are certain restrictions that apply. Option A, carrying anywhere in the vehicle, is incorrect because it suggests that a firearm can be carried in any location within the vehicle. Option B, carrying in plain view, is also incorrect as this would not meet the requirements of an unloaded and locked firearm. Option D, stating that it is not legal to carry a firearm in a vehicle without a permit, is also not entirely correct as there are circumstances where it is legal in Alabama. Thus, only option C is correct as it specifies that the firearm must be both unloaded and locked away, which follows the regulations in Alabama.
