What must non-residents comply with to openly carry a firearm in Arizona?

  1. They must have a permit from their home state

  2. Complete a firearms safety course in Arizona

  3. Nothing; Arizona laws apply equally to residents and non-residents

  4. Carry a government-issued identification at all times

The correct answer is: Nothing; Arizona laws apply equally to residents and non-residents

In Arizona, non-residents are subject to the same laws regarding the open carry of firearms as residents. This means that as long as individuals comply with the general gun laws of the state, they can openly carry a firearm without needing any additional permits or requirements specifically for non-residents. Arizona is known for its permissive gun laws which allow open carry without a permit, provided the individual is legally allowed to possess a firearm. This principle ensures that the rights afforded to residents are equally extended to non-residents, promoting a consistent legal framework for firearm carry across state lines. Other options, such as needing a permit from their home state or completing a firearms safety course in Arizona, do not align with Arizona's laws as they would impose additional requirements that are not mandated by state statutes. Carrying government-issued identification is generally advisable for identification purposes but is not a requirement specifically tied to the act of openly carrying a firearm in Arizona.
