Is a permit required to carry a concealed firearm in Arizona?

  1. Yes, for everyone

  2. Yes, but only for non-residents

  3. No, but there are exceptions

  4. No permit is required at all

The correct answer is: No, but there are exceptions

In Arizona, a permit is generally not required to carry a concealed firearm, as stated in the Arizona Revised Statutes, Section 13-3112. However, there are certain exceptions to this rule, such as for individuals who are under the age of 21, have certain criminal backgrounds, or do not meet the residency requirements. Therefore, while a permit may not be required for most individuals, there are still exceptions and it is important to be aware of them. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they state that a permit is required in some form, which is not entirely accurate based on Arizona's laws. However, these options do touch on the potential need for a permit for certain individuals or situations, albeit not for "everyone" or "no one" in general. Option D is also incorrect because it suggests that no permit is required at all, which is only partially true.
