Is a permit required to purchase a handgun in Wyoming?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only for residents

  4. Only for non-residents

The correct answer is: No

In Wyoming, no permit is required to purchase a handgun. The state follows permissive gun laws where individuals can openly carry firearms without a permit. This includes the purchase of handguns, which can be bought by residents and non-residents without the need for a permit. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because Wyoming law does not mandate a permit for purchasing handguns for any individuals, whether residents or non-residents.
