The laws governing the use of firearms in public spaces vary from state to state and even from city to city. Generally, they forbid carrying a loaded gun in public without a permit and prohibit displaying or handling guns in any way that might reasonably be seen as a threatening or dangerous action. It is also illegal to carry a gun if you have been convicted of certain offenses, are an undocumented immigrant, or are under the influence of drugs or alcohol. To make sure that you are following firearms laws correctly, consult your local laws and ordinances, stay updated on changes in those rules, check with local law enforcement if you have any doubts about the legality of your actions and never rely on generic information found online.

Firearm laws can be complicated, so it is always important to make sure that you understand the regulations in your area. This can usually be done through research or by talking to a knowledgeable firearms professional. Generally speaking, most public spaces prohibit the carrying of loaded guns unless specifically allowed by law or statute. In some cases, it may be permissible to carry an unloaded gun as long as it is in a case and plainly visible. Before bringing any kind of gun into a public space, make sure that you are familiar with and in compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
