No
Yes, but only in rural areas

The correct answer is: Yes, without a permit

In New Hampshire, open carry of a firearm is legal without the need for a permit. This means that individuals in the state can openly carry a firearm in public places as long as they are not prohibited by law from possessing a firearm. It is important to note that while open carry is generally allowed, there are certain restrictions and regulations that individuals must still adhere to when carrying a firearm in New Hampshire. Option B is incorrect because, as mentioned, a permit is not required for open carry in the state of New Hampshire. Option C is incorrect because open carry is indeed legal in New Hampshire. Option D is also incorrect as open carry is not limited to rural areas and is generally allowed in public spaces throughout the state.
