Yes, in any part of the vehicle
Yes, but only if the gun is unloaded and in a locked compartment
No, a permit is required to carry a firearm in a vehicle
Yes, but only for non-residents

The correct answer is: No, a permit is required to carry a firearm in a vehicle

In the state of Iowa, individuals are required to have a valid permit in order to carry a concealed firearm in a vehicle. Options A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not require a permit for carrying a firearm in a vehicle. Option B is specifically incorrect as it may lead to confusion - while the gun must be unloaded and in a locked compartment, a permit is still required. Option D is incorrect as it only applies to non-residents, while the question pertains to all individuals. It is important to note that even with a permit, there are still certain restrictions and guidelines for carrying a concealed firearm in a vehicle in Iowa.
