What constitutes a felony conviction barring someone from obtaining a concealed handgun permit in Louisiana?

Any felony conviction
A conviction with a sentence of 1 year or more
A violent felony conviction
A drug-related felony conviction

The correct answer is: Any felony conviction

In Louisiana, any felony conviction, regardless of the specific type of felony or the length of the sentence, will bar someone from obtaining a concealed handgun permit. This means that even if the felony is non-violent or drug-related, it will still prevent an individual from being eligible for a concealed handgun permit. The law in Louisiana is stringent in this regard to ensure public safety and to uphold certain standards for individuals who are granted the privilege of carrying a concealed firearm.
