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

  1. 0.00%

  2. 0.08%

  3. 0.05%

  4. 0.02%

The correct answer is: 0.08%

In Arizona, the legal blood alcohol content (BAC) limit for carrying a firearm is 0.08%. This means that if a person's BAC is 0.08% or higher, they are considered legally intoxicated and are not permitted to carry a firearm. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they all have a lower BAC limit than the 0.08% limit for carrying a firearm. Option A of 0.00% may seem like the most logical answer, but it is actually incorrect because even a small amount of alcohol in the blood can impair one's judgment and decrease their ability to handle a firearm safely. Option C of 0.05% is also incorrect because while it is a lower BAC limit than the standard 0.08% for driving under the influence, it is still higher than the limit for carrying a firearm. Option D of 0.02% is the lowest BAC limit out of all the options, but it is still too high to legally carry a firearm in Arizona.
