What is required to obtain a concealed carry permit in Washington D.C.?

  1. A background check only

  2. A safety training course only

  3. Both a background check and a safety training course

  4. Neither a background check nor a safety training course

The correct answer is: Both a background check and a safety training course

In order to obtain a concealed carry permit in Washington D.C., both a background check and a safety training course are required. A background check is necessary to ensure that the individual does not have a criminal history that would make them ineligible for a concealed carry permit. Additionally, a safety training course is required to ensure that the individual knows how to safely handle and use a firearm. Therefore, choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not meet the full requirements for obtaining a concealed carry permit in Washington D.C.
