What is the term for carrying a firearm openly in Mississippi?

Open carry
Concealed carry
Public carry
Free carry

The correct answer is: Open carry

Open carry is the term for carrying a firearm openly in Mississippi. This means that the firearm is openly visible to others. The term concealed carry, which is option B, refers to carrying a firearm in a concealed manner, such as under clothing or in a bag. Option C, public carry, is not a commonly used term and may refer to carrying a firearm in any location that is accessible to the public, whether openly or concealed. Option D, free carry, is not a term used to describe carrying a firearm in any state. Therefore, option A, open carry, is the only correct term for carrying a firearm openly in Mississippi.
