Can a non-resident of Virginia obtain a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit?

  1. Yes, if they meet all the requirements

  2. No, only Virginia residents can apply

  3. Yes, but only if they are employed in Virginia

  4. No, unless they are military personnel stationed in Virginia

The correct answer is: Yes, if they meet all the requirements

Virginia allows non-residents to obtain a Concealed Handgun Permit as long as they meet all the requirements. This includes passing a background check, completing a training course, and being at least 21 years old. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they place additional restrictions on non-residents that are not specified in state law. As such, they are not a true representation of the requirements for a non-resident to obtain a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit.
