Can an out-of-state resident apply for a concealed carry permit in Rhode Island?

  1. Yes, but only if they work in Rhode Island

  2. No, out-of-state residents cannot apply

  3. Yes, without any restrictions

  4. Yes, but they must own property in Rhode Island

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

An out-of-state resident can apply for a concealed carry permit in Rhode Island if they work in the state, but not without this restriction. Option B is incorrect because there is a specific exception for residents who work in the state. Option C is also incorrect because there are restrictions on who can apply for a concealed carry permit in Rhode Island. Option D is incorrect because there is no requirement for the applicant to own property in the state in order to apply for a concealed carry permit. While owning property may be a contributing factor in obtaining the permit, it is not a mandatory requirement.
