What type of firearms safety training is required to apply for a concealed carry permit in Rhode Island?

  1. NRA firearms safety course

  2. Hunter education course

  3. A safety course approved by the attorney general

  4. No safety training is required

The correct answer is: A safety course approved by the attorney general

In Rhode Island, to apply for a concealed carry permit, individuals are required to complete a firearms safety course that is approved by the attorney general. This requirement ensures that applicants have received proper training in handling firearms safely before being issued a permit to carry a concealed weapon. Option A (NRA firearms safety course) is not the correct answer because although NRA courses are well-regarded for firearms training, specifically for concealed carry permit requirements in Rhode Island, the course needs to be approved by the attorney general. Option B (Hunter education course) is not the correct answer either, as it is not tailored to the specific requirements for a concealed carry permit. Option D (No safety training is required) is incorrect as well, as Rhode Island mandates approved safety training for concealed carry permit applicants.
