Official summary

Abstract published by the legislature (via Open States). Text as published by the legislature; reproduced verbatim.

Current law provides requirements for a person to be issued a concealed-carry permit. Among those requirements is that a person be at least age twenty‑one (21) to receive a concealed-carry permit. This act amends the age requirement for a concealed-carry permit to require a person to be age eighteen (18) to receive a permit. This act repeals obsolete provisions related to the issuance of concealed-carry permits to persons between age eighteen (18) and age twenty‑one (21).
