Who is eligible to apply for a Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) in Nebraska?

Anyone over the age of 21
Only active-duty military personnel
Residents of Nebraska only
Anyone, regardless of age

The correct answer is: Anyone over the age of 21

The eligibility to apply for a Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) in Nebraska is specifically for individuals who are over the age of 21. This age requirement is in place to ensure that applicants have attained a certain level of maturity and responsibility, as carrying a concealed weapon carries significant legal and safety responsibilities. In addition to age, applicants must meet other criteria, including being a resident of Nebraska or a non-resident who meets certain conditions. In this context, while the other choices may seem plausible, they do not align with the specific legal requirements set forth in Nebraska law. For example, active-duty military personnel may apply but they are not the only eligible group. Additionally, there are restrictions regarding age and residency that further clarify who can apply. Thus, the correct answer clearly outlines the age requirement that is a foundational aspect of eligibility for obtaining a CHP in Nebraska.
