What is the legal blood alcohol content limit for carrying a firearm in West Virginia?

0.02%
0.00%
0.08%
0.10%

The correct answer is: 0.08%

The legal blood alcohol content limit for carrying a firearm in West Virginia is 0.08%. This means that if an individual's BAC is 0.08% or higher, they are considered legally intoxicated and are not allowed to possess a firearm. Option A is incorrect because it is the legal BAC limit for drivers under 21 years of age in West Virginia, not for carrying a firearm. Option B is incorrect because it implies that any amount of alcohol in the system is not allowed when carrying a firearm, which is not the case. Option D is incorrect because it is the legal BAC limit for driving in West Virginia, not for carrying a firearm. It's important to note that even though the legal limit for carrying a firearm is 0.08%, it is always safest to not handle or carry a firearm while under the influence of alcohol. Additionally, it is important to always follow the laws and regulations of the state in which you are carrying a firearm.
