Wyoming Gun Laws & Firearms Safety Practice Exam

Can non-residents carry a concealed weapon in Wyoming without a Wyoming permit?

1. Yes, if they have a permit from their state

2. No

3. Yes, but only if their state's permit is recognized by Wyoming

4. Yes, with any valid U.S. permit

The correct answer is: Yes, but only if their state's permit is recognized by Wyoming

Non-residents can carry a concealed weapon in Wyoming without a Wyoming permit as long as their state's permit is recognized by Wyoming. Wyoming has reciprocity agreements with certain states, meaning they recognize permits issued in those states. It is important for non-residents to check if their state's permit is valid in Wyoming before carrying a concealed weapon in the state. This ensures that they are complying with state laws and regulations regarding concealed carry. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not take into account the reciprocity agreements between states and Wyoming. Simply having a permit from their state or any valid U.S. permit does not automatically allow non-residents to carry a concealed weapon in Wyoming without a Wyoming permit. The recognition of their state's permit by Wyoming is a crucial factor in determining the legality of carrying a concealed weapon as a non-resident in Wyoming.
