Can firearms be carried openly in Wyoming?

No, it's illegal
Yes, but only in rural areas
Yes, without a permit
Yes, but only with a permit

The correct answer is: Yes, without a permit

Yes, firearms can be carried openly in Wyoming without a permit. Wyoming is known for having very permissive gun laws, and one of those laws allows for the open carry of firearms without the need for a permit. This is in contrast to many other states where a permit is required to openly carry a firearm in public. It is important for individuals to be aware of and understand the specific gun laws in the state where they reside or plan to carry a firearm. Option A is incorrect because it states that carrying firearms openly in Wyoming is illegal, which is not true. Option B is incorrect as it limits open carry to rural areas only, which is not the case in Wyoming. Option D is incorrect as it states that carrying firearms openly in Wyoming requires a permit, which is not true according to Wyoming's gun laws.
