What is the penalty for carrying a firearm in a prohibited area in Iowa, even with a permit?

  1. No penalty, if done unintentionally

  2. A simple misdemeanor

  3. A serious misdemeanor

The correct answer is: A simple misdemeanor

Carrying a firearm in a prohibited area, even with a permit, is considered a simple misdemeanor in Iowa. This means that the offender may face a fine, community service, or up to 30 days in jail. It is important to know and follow the laws regarding firearms in specific areas to avoid potential penalties. Options A, C, and D are all incorrect because they impose more severe penalties, ranging from no penalty at all to a felony charge, for carrying a firearm in a prohibited area.
