Is it legal to openly carry a handgun in public in Arkansas?

  1. Yes, without any permit

  2. Yes, with a permit

  3. No, in all cases

  4. Depends on the local municipality

The correct answer is: Yes, without any permit

In Arkansas, it is legal to openly carry a handgun in public without a permit. This is due to the lack of laws in the state regarding open carry of handguns. However, there may be restrictions in certain local municipalities, so it is important to research and understand the laws in the specific area where you plan to carry a handgun. Option B is incorrect because it suggests that a permit is required for open carry in Arkansas. Option C is also incorrect because there are certain circumstances in which open carry is allowed. Option D is incorrect because while it is true that local municipalities may have their own laws and regulations, this does not change the fact that open carry is legal without a permit in Arkansas.
