Is it legal to transport a loaded firearm in a vehicle without a concealed handgun permit in Louisiana?

  1. Yes, anywhere in the vehicle

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only in the glove compartment or console

  4. Yes, but it must be visible

The correct answer is: Yes, but only in the glove compartment or console

In Louisiana, it is legal to transport a loaded firearm in a vehicle without a concealed handgun permit, but there are specific guidelines that must be followed. The correct answer, option C, states that a loaded firearm can only be transported in the glove compartment or console of the vehicle. This means that it is not legal to transport a loaded firearm anywhere else within the vehicle without a concealed handgun permit. Option A is incorrect because simply having a loaded firearm anywhere in the vehicle is not in compliance with Louisiana law without a concealed handgun permit. Option B is also incorrect as it is legal to transport a loaded firearm under certain conditions. Option D is incorrect as well because in Louisiana, a loaded firearm cannot be transported visibly in the vehicle without a concealed handgun permit.
