Is open carry of a firearm legal in Rhode Island?

Yes, without any permit
Yes, with a permit
No, it's illegal in all circumstances
Only for non-residents

The correct answer is: Yes, with a permit

Open carry of a firearm is actually not permissible in Rhode Island, under any circumstance. Option A states that it is legal without any permit, which is incorrect. Option C is also incorrect. Option D may seem deceptive, as non-residents do not typically have permits, but ultimately the presence or absence of a permit does not impact the legality of open carry in Rhode Island.
