Which of the following convictions disqualifies an applicant from receiving a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit?

  1. Felonies only

  2. Misdemeanors and felonies

  3. Drug-related convictions only

  4. DUI convictions only

The correct answer is: Felonies only

Felony convictions are serious offenses and are typically the primary disqualifying factor when applying for a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit. Misdemeanors are generally less severe than felonies, and for some minor offenses, individuals may still be eligible for a permit. Drug-related convictions and DUI convictions, while serious, do not automatically disqualify an applicant unless they are classified as felonies. Therefore, the correct answer is A, as felony convictions carry the most weight when determining eligibility for a Concealed Handgun Permit in Virginia.
