Is a permit required to openly carry a firearm in New Hampshire?

Yes, in all cases
No, but there are some exceptions
Yes, but only in certain cities
No, never

The correct answer is: No, but there are some exceptions

New Hampshire is a constitutional carry state, so generally no permit is required for open carry. However, there are some exceptions to this, such as for individuals who are prohibited from possessing a firearm or while in certain places, such as schools or government buildings. Option A is incorrect because there are exceptions to permitless open carry. Option C is also incorrect because the requirement for a permit is not limited to certain cities, but rather certain situations. Option D is incorrect because, as discussed, there are exceptions to permitless open carry in New Hampshire.
