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

  1. Yes, without restrictions

  2. Only if they are employed in Louisiana

  3. No

  4. Yes, but only if they have a permit from their state

The correct answer is: Only if they are employed in Louisiana

A non-resident can apply for a Louisiana concealed handgun permit only if they are employed in Louisiana. This is the correct answer because Louisiana state law allows non-residents who are employed in the state to apply for a concealed handgun permit. This exception is specifically mentioned in the Louisiana gun laws, making option B the correct choice. Options A, C, and D are incorrect: - Option A is not entirely accurate because non-residents cannot apply for a Louisiana concealed handgun permit without restrictions. The employment requirement is a key factor in determining eligibility for non-residents. - Option C is incorrect as it is a blanket statement that does not reflect the specific employment exception for non-residents. - Option D is not completely accurate because the mere possession of a permit from another state is not sufficient for a non-resident to apply for a Louisiana concealed handgun permit. The employment provision is a crucial requirement in this scenario.
