Which of the following best describes New Hampshire's stance on open carry of a firearm in public?

  1. Prohibited without a permit

  2. Allowed without a permit

  3. Allowed only with a permit

  4. Not mentioned in the law

The correct answer is: Allowed without a permit

In New Hampshire, the open carry of a firearm in public is allowed without a permit. This means that individuals are legally permitted to openly carry a firearm in public spaces without requiring a specific permit to do so. This distinguishes New Hampshire as an "open carry" state where individuals can openly display their firearms in public areas as long as they are abiding by state and federal laws.
