Under Arkansas law, is it legal to carry a firearm in a church or place of worship?

Yes, with express permission from the institution
Yes, without any restrictions
No, it is strictly prohibited
Only during religious ceremonies

The correct answer is: Yes, with express permission from the institution

In Arkansas, carrying a firearm in a church or place of worship is permissible only with express permission from the institution. This means that if a church or place of worship allows it and has established guidelines or policies regarding firearms, individuals may carry their firearms on the premises. The need for express permission reflects the state's recognition of the rights of property owners and the importance of maintaining the sanctity and safety of the worship environment. This approach balances the rights of individuals to bear arms with the discretion of religious institutions to set their own rules regarding firearms on their property. Therefore, anyone wishing to carry a firearm in such a setting must first seek and obtain the approval of the church or worship center.
