Which of the following is a requirement for openly carrying a firearm in South Dakota?

  1. A special permit

  2. Completion of a firearms training course

  3. Notification to local law enforcement

  4. No specific requirements

The correct answer is: No specific requirements

In South Dakota, openly carrying a firearm does not generally require a special permit, completion of a firearms training course, or notification to local law enforcement. South Dakota is considered an "unrestricted" or "constitutional carry" state, meaning that individuals who are legally allowed to possess firearms can typically openly carry them without the need for a specific permit or training. This is why option D, "No specific requirements," is the correct answer in this case.
