Can non-residents apply for a permit to carry concealed firearms in New Hampshire?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only from reciprocal states

  4. Yes, but they must first obtain a non-resident hunting license

The correct answer is: Yes

New Hampshire has constitutional carry, meaning that the state prohibits requiring a license to carry a concealed firearm, and any law-abiding individual not prohibited from possessing a firearm can legally carry throughout the state. Therefore, there is no need for a permit to carry a concealed firearm, making option A the correct answer. The other options either do not apply to New Hampshire's laws or do not accurately describe the current permit requirements in the state. Option B is incorrect because non-residents can carry a concealed firearm without a permit. Option C is incorrect because the state does not have a reciprocity agreement for concealed carry permits. Option D is incorrect because there is no longer a requirement for a non-resident hunting license in order to carry a concealed firearm.
