Who is eligible to apply for a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit?

  1. Virginia residents only

  2. U.S. citizens residing in Virginia

  3. Any U.S. citizen

  4. Residents of Virginia and non-residents with property in Virginia

The correct answer is: U.S. citizens residing in Virginia

U.S. citizens residing in Virginia are eligible to apply for a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit. This requirement is specifically for individuals who are living in the state of Virginia. Option A is incorrect because it limits the eligibility to only Virginia residents, excluding U.S. citizens residing in the state. Option C is also incorrect as it states that any U.S. citizen, regardless of residence, can apply, which is not the case in Virginia. Option D is incorrect as it includes non-residents with property in Virginia, which is not a requirement for obtaining a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit.
