This distinguishes Alabama from some other states that require a permit for open carry. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because Alabama law permits individuals to open carry handguns without the need for a permit, regardless of whether it is in rural areas, loaded, or unloaded.
