Who issues a Concealed Handgun Permit in Virginia?

Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources
Circuit Court of the applicant's residence
Virginia State Police
Local Sheriff's Office

The correct answer is: Circuit Court of the applicant's residence

The Circuit Court of the applicant's residence issues a Concealed Handgun Permit in Virginia. This is the correct answer because in Virginia, the Circuit Court is responsible for processing and issuing concealed handgun permits to qualifying applicants. The other options are incorrect because: - The Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources does not issue concealed handgun permits; their primary focus is on wildlife conservation and management. - While the Virginia State Police are involved in conducting background checks for concealed handgun permit applications, they do not issue the permits themselves. - Although the Local Sheriff's Office may be involved in the application process by providing information or conducting background checks, they do not have the authority to issue the concealed handgun permits in Virginia.
