Is it legal for an out-of-state visitor to carry a concealed handgun in New Hampshire?

  1. Yes, with their home state permit

  2. Yes, without any permit

  3. No, under all circumstances

  4. Yes, if they obtain a New Hampshire non-resident permit

The correct answer is: Yes, without any permit

Yes, an out-of-state visitor can carry a concealed handgun in New Hampshire without any permit. New Hampshire is a constitutional carry state, which means that anyone who is not prohibited by law from possessing a firearm can carry a concealed handgun without a permit. This law applies to both residents and visitors to the state. Option A is not the correct answer because New Hampshire does not require visitors with a home state permit to carry a concealed handgun. Option C is not correct because, as mentioned, visitors are allowed to carry a concealed handgun in New Hampshire under specific conditions. Option D is also incorrect because a non-resident permit is not required for visitors to carry a concealed handgun in the state.
