Who is eligible to apply for a concealed carry permit in Rhode Island?

  1. Any resident over the age of 18

  2. Any resident over the age of 21 with no criminal record

  3. Non-residents with a valid permit from another state

  4. Law enforcement officials only

The correct answer is: Any resident over the age of 21 with no criminal record

Residents who are 21 years of age or older and have no criminal record are eligible to apply for a concealed carry permit in Rhode Island. Option A is incorrect because the minimum age requirement is 21, not 18. Option C is incorrect because non-residents must have a valid permit from Rhode Island, not another state. Option D is incorrect because law enforcement officials are not the only ones eligible to apply for a concealed carry permit in Rhode Island.
