What is the legal BAC (Blood Alcohol Content) limit for carrying a firearm in South Dakota?

0.00%
0.08%
0.04%
There is no specified limit

The correct answer is: 0.08%

In South Dakota, it is illegal to carry a firearm if your BAC (Blood Alcohol Content) is over 0.08%, which is the same limit for driving under the influence. This limit is in place to help prevent potential accidents and injury while handling a firearm. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they either have a stricter or non-existent BAC limit for carrying a firearm. Option A, 0.00%, would mean that any trace amount of alcohol in your system would be illegal, making it impractical and overly strict. Option C, 0.04%, is also incorrect as it is not the legal BAC limit for carrying a firearm in South Dakota, although it may be the limit for other activities such as driving a commercial vehicle. Option D, There is no specified limit, is incorrect because South Dakota does have a specified limit of 0.08%. It is important to be aware of and abide by this legal limit to ensure the safe handling and use of firearms in South Dakota.
