What is required to carry a concealed weapon in Arizona?

  1. Arizona concealed weapons permit

  2. Federal firearms license

  3. Background check and firearms training

  4. Nothing; Arizona allows constitutional carry

The correct answer is: Nothing; Arizona allows constitutional carry

In Arizona, there is no requirement for a person to obtain a concealed weapons permit in order to carry a concealed firearm. This practice, often referred to as "constitutional carry," allows individuals who are at least 21 years old and legally allowed to possess a firearm to carry it concealed without the need for a permit. While obtaining a concealed weapons permit can offer advantages such as recognition in other states that require permits, it is not mandatory within Arizona itself. This reflects Arizona's commitment to the Second Amendment rights of its citizens, allowing a degree of personal freedom regarding firearm possession and carry. Other options may contain beneficial practices such as obtaining training or permits, but they do not reflect the current legal requirements in Arizona regarding concealed carry. For example, while a federal firearms license pertains to the sale and transfer of firearms, it is unrelated to the right to carry concealed weapons. Likewise, background checks and training may improve safety and preparedness but are not legally necessary to carry concealed in Arizona.
