Is it legal to carry a firearm while under the influence of alcohol or drugs in Utah?

  1. Yes, but only in private residences

  2. Yes, but with certain restrictions

  3. No, it is illegal

  4. It's legal if not visibly intoxicated

The correct answer is: No, it is illegal

The state of Utah strictly prohibits carrying a firearm while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. This applies regardless of whether one is in public or a private residence. While the other options may seem plausible, they are incorrect as they do not align with state laws and regulations. Option A is incorrect because it implies that carrying a firearm while under the influence is allowed as long as it is done in private residences, which is not the case in Utah. Option B is also incorrect because there are no specific restrictions outlined in the law that would allow for carrying a firearm while under the influence. Option D is incorrect because even if one is not visibly intoxicated, it is still illegal to carry a firearm while under the influence in Utah.
