What must you do when approached by a law enforcement officer while carrying a concealed firearm in Alaska?

  1. Immediately inform the officer

  2. Hide the firearm

  3. Only disclose if asked

  4. Nothing, it's not required

The correct answer is: Immediately inform the officer

When approached by a law enforcement officer while carrying a concealed firearm in Alaska, it is important to immediately inform the officer that you are carrying a concealed firearm. This is the correct answer because in Alaska, individuals who are lawfully carrying a concealed firearm are required by law to inform a law enforcement officer of the firearm's presence during any official contact with that officer. This is to ensure transparency and safety during the interaction. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because hiding the firearm, only disclosing if asked, or doing nothing and not informing the officer are not in compliance with Alaska state law regarding concealed carry. It is essential to follow state laws and regulations to avoid potential legal issues and ensure the safety of everyone involved.
