Under Oklahoma law, carrying a firearm while under the influence of alcohol or drugs is:

  1. Allowed if you're not actually using the gun

  2. Prohibited

  3. Only allowed in your own home

  4. Allowed if you have a special permit

The correct answer is: Prohibited

The correct answer is B, as Oklahoma law explicitly prohibits carrying a firearm while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. This regulation is in place to ensure public safety, as being under the influence can impair judgment and coordination, thereby increasing the risk of accidents or misuse of the firearm. The intention behind this law is to reduce the likelihood of dangerous situations arising from a combination of firearms and impaired physical or mental states. The other options suggest scenarios in which carrying a firearm under the influence might be permissible, but those do not align with the legal restrictions imposed by the state. Therefore, only choice B accurately reflects the law regarding firearms and substance influence in Oklahoma.
