Who is eligible to apply for a Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) in Nebraska?

  1. Any resident over the age of 21

  2. Non-residents with a work permit

  3. Only military personnel stationed in Nebraska

  4. All residents of Nebraska

The correct answer is: Any resident over the age of 21

The eligibility to apply for a Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) in Nebraska requires that the applicant be a resident of the state and at least 21 years old. This means that any resident who meets the age requirement can apply for a permit, which makes this option the correct one. Being over the age of 21 is crucial because it aligns with federal laws regarding the possession of firearms. Additionally, being a resident ensures that the permit is issued in accordance with local laws and regulations, which are established to uphold safety and responsible gun ownership within the community. The other choices reflect limitations or inaccuracies regarding eligibility. Non-residents with a work permit do not automatically qualify, as the law specifies residency as a requirement. Similarly, the option stating that only military personnel stationed in Nebraska can apply is overly restrictive and does not account for the general resident population. The choice indicating all residents of Nebraska is close but does not specify the age requirement, making it less precise than the correct answer.
