What is the duration of a standard permit to carry a concealed handgun in Alabama?

1 year
5 years
2 years
Indefinite

The correct answer is: 5 years

In Alabama, the duration of a standard permit to carry a concealed handgun is 5 years. During this period, the permit holder is allowed to legally carry a concealed handgun in accordance with Alabama state law. This time frame provides a balance between ensuring that permit holders undergo regular renewal processes to maintain their eligibility and the convenience of having a permit for an extended period of time without frequent renewals. Options A, C, and D are incorrect: A. 1 year - This option is incorrect as the standard permit duration in Alabama is not just 1 year but 5 years. C. 2 years - The permit is valid for a longer period of time than 2 years. D. Indefinite - In Alabama, the standard permit to carry a concealed handgun is not indefinite. It has a set duration of 5 years before needing to be renewed.
