What is Oklahoma's law regarding the open carry of firearms in vehicles?

It is prohibited without a permit
It is allowed if the firearm is in plain view
It is allowed if the firearm is unloaded and stored in a closed compartment
B and C

The correct answer is: It is allowed if the firearm is in plain view

In Oklahoma, the law permits open carry of firearms in vehicles under specific conditions. When a firearm is in plain view within the vehicle, it is permissible to carry it openly. This aligns with Oklahoma's general approach to firearm carry, emphasizing the importance of visibility for open carry. The other choice that states firearms can be allowed in a vehicle if they are unloaded and stored in a closed compartment also reflects a legal stipulation, but it's primarily focused on scenarios where firearms are not displayed. Therefore, the correct interpretation of open carry relates directly to the visibility of the firearm rather than the storage criteria. Thus, while the option regarding firearms in a closed compartment is valid for different circumstances, the emphasis on the firearm being in plain view accurately captures the essence of Oklahoma’s open carry laws within vehicles.
