Can a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit be revoked?

  1. Yes, if the holder is convicted of a felony

  2. Yes, but only if the holder moves out of Virginia

  3. No, once issued it is valid for life

  4. Yes, but only upon the holder's request

The correct answer is: Yes, if the holder is convicted of a felony

A Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit can be revoked if the holder is convicted of a felony. This is a crucial aspect of permit regulations as a felony conviction demonstrates a serious violation of the law that makes the permit holder ineligible to possess a concealed handgun. Revoking the permit in such cases helps maintain public safety and ensures that only individuals who meet the required legal standards are allowed to carry a concealed firearm. Options B and D are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the circumstances under which a permit can be revoked, and option C is also incorrect since a permit is not necessarily valid for life and can be subject to revocation under specific conditions.
