Which of the following is a requirement for openly carrying a firearm in Mississippi?

  1. The firearm must be registered

  2. No requirement, it is permissible by law

  3. The carrier must have a permit

  4. The carrier must notify local law enforcement

The correct answer is: No requirement, it is permissible by law

In Mississippi, there is no law requiring a permit or registration for openly carrying a firearm. This means that anyone who is legally allowed to possess a firearm can openly carry it without needing special permission or registration from the government. Option A is incorrect because firearms do not need to be registered in Mississippi. Option C is incorrect because a permit is not required for openly carrying a firearm. Option D is incorrect because while some states may have a law requiring notification to law enforcement, there is no such requirement in Mississippi for openly carrying a firearm.
