Can non-residents carry a concealed weapon in Wyoming using their home state's permit?

  1. Yes, if their state is recognized by Wyoming

  2. Yes, but only with a Wyoming permit

  3. No, non-residents cannot carry concealed

  4. Yes, under federal law

The correct answer is: Yes, if their state is recognized by Wyoming

Non-residents can carry a concealed weapon in Wyoming using their home state's permit if their state is recognized by Wyoming. Wyoming has reciprocity agreements with a number of other states, allowing individuals with valid concealed carry permits from those states to legally carry concealed firearms in Wyoming. This means that individuals who are non-residents of Wyoming can legally carry their concealed weapons if their home state's permit is recognized by Wyoming. Option B is incorrect because it implies that non-residents can only carry with a Wyoming permit, which is not necessarily true if their home state's permit is recognized by Wyoming. Option C is also incorrect because non-residents can carry concealed in Wyoming under certain conditions as mentioned above. Option D is incorrect because although federal laws can impact gun regulations, in this case, the question is specific to Wyoming's laws regarding non-residents carrying concealed weapons. Federal law does not automatically grant non-residents the right to carry concealed in all states.
