Can a non-resident apply for a Louisiana concealed handgun permit?

  1. Yes, if they work in Louisiana

  2. No, it is not allowed

  3. Yes, with special exceptions

  4. Yes, but only military personnel

The correct answer is: Yes, if they work in Louisiana

Non-residents are able to apply for a Louisiana concealed handgun permit if they work in Louisiana. This is an important exception to the general rule that typically limits concealed handgun permits to residents of the state. It allows individuals who work in Louisiana but may not be residents to still have the ability to legally carry a concealed handgun for self-defense purposes. Options B, C, and D are not correct in this context because non-residents are permitted to apply for a Louisiana concealed handgun permit if they work in the state, as explained above.
