In 2010, Arizona became one of the first states to repeal its concealed weapons permitting requirement, kick-starting a dangerous national trend—and meaning that people can carry hidden, loaded guns in public without a background check or training.
Arizona respects the right of law abiding citizens to openly carry a handgun. Any person 21 years of age or older, who is not prohibited possessor, may carry a weapon openly or concealed without the need for a license.
Since Arizona has permitless carry, any person who is at least 18 years old who can legally possess a firearm may open carry, and any person at least 21 years old may concealed carry a firearm without a permit. Arizona will honor concealed carry permits from all other states' and political subdivisions.
