Can individuals carry firearms openly in Arkansas?

  1. Yes, without any restrictions

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only in rural areas

  4. Yes, but there are some restrictions

The correct answer is: Yes, but there are some restrictions

In Arkansas, individuals are permitted to carry firearms openly, but there are specific restrictions in place that must be adhered to. This includes complying with local laws, regulations concerning where firearms can be carried, and ensuring that the firearm is properly secured when not actively in use. Certain locations, such as schools, government buildings, and private property where firearms are prohibited, must be respected. As a result, while open carry is allowed, the existence of these conditions means that individuals cannot carry firearms freely without regard to restrictions. This understanding highlights the importance of being knowledgeable about both state laws and local ordinances regarding firearm carry.
