Is it legal to openly carry a handgun in Alaska?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only in rural areas

  4. Only with a permit

The correct answer is: Yes

In Alaska, it is legal to openly carry a handgun without a permit. Alaska is a "constitutional carry" state, which means that individuals who are legally allowed to possess firearms can openly carry them in most public places without the need for a permit. This includes both residents and non-residents. Therefore, option A is the correct answer. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because Alaska law allows for the open carry of handguns without the need for a permit, regardless of whether you are in a rural area or not.
