Wyoming Gun Laws & Firearms Safety Practice Exam

How does Wyoming classify a 'concealed weapon'?

1. A weapon not visible to the ordinary observation of a reasonable person

2. A weapon carried in a holster, whether visible or not

3. Any firearm carried on a person

4. Any firearm within a vehicle

The correct answer is: A weapon not visible to the ordinary observation of a reasonable person

In Wyoming, a 'concealed weapon' is classified as a weapon not visible to the ordinary observation of a reasonable person. This means that the weapon must be fully concealed from view in order to be considered a concealed weapon. Option B is incorrect because a weapon carried in a holster, even if not visible, may still be considered a concealed weapon if it is not fully visible to a reasonable person. Option C is incorrect because not all firearms carried on a person in Wyoming are necessarily considered concealed weapons. Option D is also incorrect because not all firearms within a vehicle are classified as concealed weapons in the state of Wyoming.
