Is open carry of a firearm legal in Alaska?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only in rural areas

  4. Only with a permit

The correct answer is: Yes

In Alaska, open carry of a firearm is legal. Alaska is a permissive open carry state, meaning that individuals are allowed to openly carry firearms in most public places without the need for a permit. This aligns with the answer provided, which is "Yes." Option B is incorrect because open carry is indeed legal in Alaska. Option C, stating "Only in rural areas," is also incorrect as open carry is generally allowed statewide. Option D is inaccurate because a permit is not required for open carry in Alaska.
