Which of the following best describes Alaska's approach to 'open carry' of firearms?

  1. Prohibited throughout the state

  2. Allowed without a permit

  3. Allowed only with a special permit

  4. Allowed only in rural areas

The correct answer is: Allowed without a permit

In Alaska, the best way to describe the approach to 'open carry' of firearms is that it is allowed without a permit. This means that individuals in Alaska can openly carry firearms without the need to obtain a specific permit for open carry. Alaska follows an open carry policy, where individuals who can legally possess firearms can carry them openly in most public spaces without needing a permit specifically for open carry. This approach aligns with Alaska's stance on gun rights and individual liberty.
