Which of the following is a requirement for obtaining a CPL in Washington?

  1. Completing a firearms training course

  2. Passing a written firearms safety test

  3. Being a resident of Washington

  4. Owning a firearm for at least one year

The correct answer is: Being a resident of Washington

A CPL (Concealed Pistol License) is a permit that allows individuals to carry a concealed firearm in Washington. While completing a firearms training course and passing a written safety test may be required in some states, they are not requirements for obtaining a CPL in Washington. Additionally, although owning a firearm for at least one year may demonstrate familiarity and responsibility, it is not a requirement for obtaining a CPL in Washington. Being a resident of Washington is the only requirement for obtaining a CPL in this state. This ensures that only individuals who are legally allowed to possess a firearm in the state are granted a CPL.
