  1. 0.00%

  2. 0.08%

  3. 0.05%

  4. South Dakota law does not specify a limit

The correct answer is: South Dakota law does not specify a limit

In the state of South Dakota, there is no specific legal blood alcohol content limit for carrying a firearm. This does not mean that individuals can consume any amount of alcohol and carry a firearm, as they could still be charged with a DUI for operating a firearm while under the influence. However, South Dakota law does not have a specific BAC limit for carrying a firearm. Option A is incorrect because even a small amount of alcohol could still impair one's judgement and ability to safely handle a firearm. Option B is incorrect because while it is the legal BAC limit for operating a vehicle, it does not apply to carrying a firearm. Option C is also incorrect because it is not the specific legal limit for carrying a firearm in South Dakota.
