Is open carry of a firearm legal in Montana without a permit?

  1. Yes, statewide

  2. No

  3. Only in rural areas

  4. Yes, but only for long guns

The correct answer is: Yes, statewide

In the state of Montana, open carry of a firearm is legal without a permit statewide. This means that individuals over the age of 18 with no criminal record are allowed to openly carry a firearm in any public area or private property they have permission to be on. This differs from option C, which suggests that open carry is only allowed in rural areas. It also differs from option D, which states that the legality of open carry is restricted to long guns only. Option B is incorrect because open carry without a permit is indeed legal in Montana.
