What is a legal implication of an individual carrying a firearm in public without permission?

Carrying a firearm in public without permission typically constitutes a violation of laws concerning firearm possession and carry regulations. When an individual does so, they may be violating statutes that govern legal ownership and concealed or open carry of firearms.

While "Subject with gun" might describe the immediate situation, it doesn’t capture the legal ramifications associated with unapproved carry. The legal implications are more accurately reflected in the other options that explicitly refer to illegal possession or violations of carry laws.

In this context, illegal possession of a firearm is a direct legal consequence as it can lead to charges or penalties, especially if the individual does not have the necessary permits or licenses to carry a firearm as stipulated by state and local laws.
