Is open carry of a firearm legal in Idaho?

Yes, without any permit
No, it is illegal
Yes, but only with a permit
Yes, but only in rural areas

The correct answer is: Yes, without any permit

Open carry of a firearm is legal in Idaho without the need for a permit, making it permissible for individuals to openly carry firearms in public. This law aligns with Idaho's strong support for individual rights regarding firearms ownership and usage. Residents and visitors find that the lack of a permitting requirement for open carry contributes to a culture of responsible gun ownership and personal freedom. In contrast, the other options suggest restrictions that do not align with the state's actual laws. There are no laws in Idaho that prohibit open carry in certain areas or require a permit, nor are there any legal limitations based on the location being urban or rural. This makes option A the only statement that accurately reflects Idaho's laws regarding the open carry of firearms.
