Which of the following is a requirement for obtaining a CCDW permit in Kentucky?

Completion of a firearms safety or training course
Passing a written test only
A recommendation from a law enforcement officer
No felony convictions in the past 5 years

The correct answer is: Completion of a firearms safety or training course

In order to obtain a CCDW permit in Kentucky, it is necessary to complete a firearms safety or training course. This option is correct because it ensures that individuals who are carrying a concealed weapon are properly educated and trained on how to handle and store firearms safely. The other options are incorrect for several reasons. Option B, passing a written test only, may not adequately assess a person's ability to safely handle a firearm. Option C, a recommendation from a law enforcement officer, may not be a practical requirement for all individuals seeking a CCDW permit and can be biased. Option D, having no felony convictions in the past 5 years, while important for ensuring responsible gun ownership, does not necessarily guarantee that an individual has the necessary training and knowledge. Therefore, option A is the most appropriate and comprehensive requirement for obtaining a CCDW permit in Kentucky.
