Is a permit required to carry a concealed firearm in Wyoming for its residents?

  1. Yes, for all firearms

  2. Yes, but only for handguns

  3. No, if the person is over 21 and meets certain criteria

  4. No, under any circumstances

The correct answer is: No, if the person is over 21 and meets certain criteria

In Wyoming, residents who are over 21 years old and meet certain criteria do not need a permit to carry a concealed firearm. This is known as constitutional carry, where individuals who meet the specified requirements can carry a concealed firearm without the need for a permit. This provision simplifies the process for law-abiding citizens to exercise their Second Amendment rights without unnecessary bureaucratic hurdles. Option A is incorrect because a permit is not required for all firearms in Wyoming. Option B is incorrect as the permit requirement is not limited to handguns only. Option D is incorrect as concealed carry without a permit is allowed under certain circumstances in Wyoming, as mentioned above.
