Is 'open carry' legal without a permit in Ohio?

  1. Yes, for residents only

  2. Yes, for everyone

  3. No

  4. Only in rural areas

The correct answer is: Yes, for everyone

Several states in the United States allow open carry without a permit, including Ohio. This means that anyone in Ohio, resident or not, is legally allowed to carry a firearm openly without a permit. Option A is incorrect because it implies that only residents of Ohio can open carry without a permit. Option C is incorrect because open carry is in fact legal in Ohio. Option D is also incorrect because open carry is not limited to rural areas, as it is legal throughout the state.
