Can non-residents carry a concealed firearm in New Hampshire?

  1. Yes, with a valid New Hampshire pistol/revolver license

  2. Yes, if they have a valid permit from their state

  3. No, under no circumstances

  4. Only if they are law enforcement officers

The correct answer is: Yes, if they have a valid permit from their state

Non-residents can carry a concealed firearm in New Hampshire if they have a valid permit from their state. This is often known as reciprocity between different states, where one state recognizes the concealed carry permits issued by another state. Hence, having a valid permit from their state allows non-residents to legally carry a concealed firearm in New Hampshire. Option A is incorrect because non-residents would not be able to obtain a New Hampshire pistol/revolver license as they are not residents of the state. Option C is incorrect as non-residents can carry with a valid out-of-state permit. Option D is incorrect because being a law enforcement officer is not the only circumstance under which non-residents can carry a concealed firearm in New Hampshire.
