Can a non-resident apply for an Arkansas concealed handgun carry license?

Yes, but only if they work in Arkansas
Yes, without restrictions
No
Yes, but only if they own property in Arkansas

The correct answer is: Yes, but only if they work in Arkansas

The correct choice indicates that non-residents are allowed to apply for an Arkansas concealed handgun carry license, but there is a condition attached—specifically, that they must work in Arkansas. This reflects the state's legal framework, which recognizes specific ties a non-resident must have to Arkansas, such as employment, to be eligible for the permit. The other possibilities suggest a broader or different eligibility without the necessary conditions. For instance, an unrestricted application for a permit by a non-resident may not align with the state's guidelines. Likewise, the restriction about owning property in Arkansas does not encompass all non-residents who may still have employment within the state. This ensures that the process is structured and that applicants have a legitimate connection to Arkansas, enhancing both accountability and law enforcement safety.
