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

  1. Any resident over 18

  2. Any resident over 21 with no felony convictions

  3. Only military personnel

  4. Non-residents with a valid reason

The correct answer is: Any resident over 21 with no felony convictions

To apply for a concealed carry permit in Delaware, an individual must be a resident of the state, at least 21 years old, and have no felony convictions. This law is in place to ensure that individuals who might pose a risk to public safety due to past criminal behavior do not obtain the privilege of carrying concealed weapons. The stipulation of being 21 years old is a guideline aimed at ensuring that applicants have reached an age of maturity where they can be fully responsible for the handling and use of firearms. This option accurately reflects the specific requirements set by Delaware law for obtaining a concealed carry permit, focusing on both age and criminal history, which are critical factors in assessing an individual's eligibility for this privilege.
