Which of the following locations is it illegal to carry a concealed weapon in Montana?

  1. Restaurants

  2. Banks

  3. Federal buildings

  4. Private vehicles

The correct answer is: Federal buildings

Carrying a concealed weapon in federal buildings is prohibited under federal law, which establishes strict regulations regarding firearms in these locations. Federal buildings encompass a wide array of facilities, including courthouses, post offices, and government offices. This prohibition exists to enhance security and ensure the safety of individuals within those spaces. In Montana, other locations, such as restaurants and banks, can have different rules based on state laws and individual establishments' policies. For example, while some restaurants may allow concealed carry, banks often have their own policies regarding firearms on their premises, but it is not a blanket prohibition. Private vehicles are generally permissible for carrying concealed weapons under Montana law, provided the individual has the appropriate permits and adheres to the relevant regulations regarding transport and storage.
