Nevada generally permits open carry of firearms by adults without a permit, subject to location restrictions and the state preemption framework.
Nevada has no statute prohibiting the open carry of handguns or long guns by lawful adult possessors. NRS 202.350 distinguishes concealed carry (which requires a permit) from open carry, which remains lawful in most public places. Open carry is prohibited in schools, childcare facilities, airports past security, and certain government buildings per NRS 202.265. Local governments cannot enact stricter rules due to preemption under NRS 268.418. Federal property and private property owner restrictions still apply.
Open carry in prohibited zones such as schools is a gross misdemeanor or felony depending on the location, with penalties including imprisonment and fines.
