Can you apply for a concealed carry permit in Washington D.C.?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only if you are law enforcement

  4. Only for non-residents

The correct answer is: Yes

Yes, you can apply for a concealed carry permit in Washington D.C. The District of Columbia allows residents to apply for a concealed carry permit through a rigorous application process. This involves meeting certain criteria, completing a firearms training course, and passing a background check. It is important for residents to understand and comply with all the regulations and requirements set forth by the District of Columbia when applying for a concealed carry permit. Option B is incorrect because residents can indeed apply for a concealed carry permit in Washington D.C. Option C is incorrect as it states that only law enforcement can apply for a concealed carry permit, which is not true for residents who meet the necessary criteria. Option D is also incorrect as it suggests that only non-residents are eligible to apply for a concealed carry permit, which is not the case in Washington D.C. Residents can apply as well.
