Oklahoma Gun Laws & Firearms Safety Practice Exam

When transporting a firearm in a vehicle without a permit in Oklahoma, how must the firearm be stored?

1. Unloaded in a locked compartment

2. Unloaded and in the glove compartment

3. Loaded, but in a holster

4. Any of the above, as long as the firearm is not accessible to the driver or passengers

The correct answer is: Unloaded in a locked compartment

The correct answer is A because in Oklahoma, it is illegal to transport a firearm in a vehicle without a permit unless it is stored in a locked compartment and is unloaded. This ensures that the firearm is not accessible to the driver or passengers, promoting safety. Option B is incorrect because the glove compartment would not be considered a locked compartment. Option C is incorrect because the law specifically states that the firearm must be unloaded. Option D is incorrect because the firearm must be stored in a locked compartment and unloaded, cannot be loaded and must not be accessible to the driver or passengers.
