What is the minimum age requirement to apply for a Concealed Pistol License (CPL) in Washington State?

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 25 years old

  4. 30 years old

The correct answer is: 21 years old

To apply for a Concealed Pistol License (CPL) in Washington State, the minimum age requirement is 21 years old. This age limit is established by state law to ensure that applicants are legally considered adults and can handle the responsibilities associated with carrying a concealed weapon. This includes understanding and complying with laws regarding the use of firearms, as well as ensuring they are mentally and emotionally prepared to carry a weapon. While individuals can purchase guns at age 18, the CPL specifically requires applicants to be at least 21, reflecting a higher standard for legal carry.
