What is required to successfully obtain a Nevada Concealed Firearm Permit?

  1. Passing a written exam only

  2. Completing a firearms safety course approved by the county sheriff

  3. Owning a firearm for more than one year

  4. A recommendation from a current permit holder

The correct answer is: Completing a firearms safety course approved by the county sheriff

To successfully obtain a Nevada Concealed Firearm Permit, completing a firearms safety course approved by the county sheriff is required. This option is the only one that directly relates to obtaining a permit for concealed carry in the state of Nevada. Option A is incorrect because a written exam alone is not sufficient to obtain a concealed firearm permit in Nevada. Option C is also incorrect as owning a firearm for a certain amount of time does not guarantee understanding of firearm safety and proper handling, which is the main purpose of the required safety course. Option D is incorrect as a recommendation from a current permit holder does not meet the same requirements as completing a safety course approved by the county sheriff.
