Can a non-resident obtain a concealed carry permit in Arkansas?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only if they are employed in Arkansas

  4. Only if they own property in Arkansas

The correct answer is: Yes

A non-resident can indeed obtain a concealed carry permit in Arkansas. Arkansas law allows non-residents to apply for a concealed carry license, which is a provision designed to accommodate individuals who may be temporarily living in or frequently visiting the state. This inclusion reflects a broader understanding of mobility and the need for personal safety for those who do not officially reside in Arkansas but wish to carry a concealed firearm within its borders. Understanding the specifics of residency and the requirements helps highlight the accessibility of concealed carry permits for those who may not be permanent Arkansas residents. By allowing non-residents to apply, the state recognizes the importance of personal protection for all individuals, irrespective of their legal residence status.
