Can non-residents apply for an Oklahoma Handgun License?

  1. Yes, anyone can apply

  2. No, non-residents cannot apply

  3. Yes, but only if they work in Oklahoma

  4. Yes, but they must own property in Oklahoma

The correct answer is: Yes, but only if they work in Oklahoma

While it may seem straightforward to say "yes" or "no" to this question, there are some important details to consider. While non-residents may be eligible to apply for an Oklahoma Handgun License, it depends on their reason for their residence status. Those who happen to work in Oklahoma while living in a different state are eligible for the license, but non-residents simply passing through or visiting are not eligible. This does not mean that the answer is necessarily "no" as some may believe based on the question, rather it is a more nuanced "yes" or "no" depending on the individual's specific situation. So while anyone theoretically can apply for an Oklahoma Handgun License, not all non-residents will be eligible.
