What is the age requirement for obtaining a concealed carry permit in Arizona?

18 years
21 years
25 years
There is no age requirement

The correct answer is: 21 years

In Arizona, the minimum age requirement for obtaining a concealed carry permit is 21 years old. This aligns with federal law which prohibits individuals under 21 from purchasing a handgun, thereby ensuring that those who are applying for a concealed carry permit are legally permitted to obtain such firearms. While individuals can possess a firearm at 18 years of age, the specific issuance of a concealed carry permit requires applicants to be at least 21. Therefore, the correct response reflects this legal age requirement, ensuring that applicants are mature enough to handle the responsibilities that come with carrying a concealed weapon. Options suggesting 18 years or 25 years do not accurately represent the law, and the option stating there is no age requirement overlooks the established legal framework set by both state and federal regulations.
