Can a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit be suspended?

  1. Yes, if the holder is under investigation for a felony

  2. No, once issued it cannot be suspended

  3. Only if the holder moves out of state

  4. Only during a state of emergency

The correct answer is: Yes, if the holder is under investigation for a felony

Yes, a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit can be suspended if the holder is under investigation for a felony. This is because individuals under investigation for a felony may pose a higher risk to public safety, prompting authorities to suspend their concealed handgun permits until the investigation is concluded. It is important to note that the suspension of a permit in such cases is done in the interest of public safety and to ensure that firearms do not end up in the wrong hands. The other options are not accurate because a permit can be suspended for reasons beyond those mentioned in options C and D, and the statement in option B is incorrect as permits can be suspended under certain circumstances.
