Can a non-resident carry a concealed weapon in Montana?

  1. Yes, if they have a permit from their state

  2. No, they cannot carry at all

  3. Yes, but only with a Montana permit

  4. Yes, without any permit

The correct answer is: Yes, if they have a permit from their state

The correct answer is that a non-resident can carry a concealed weapon in Montana if they have a permit from their home state. Montana law recognizes concealed carry permits issued by other states, allowing non-residents who possess valid permits to carry concealed firearms within Montana's borders. This provision supports the principle of reciprocity, where states acknowledge the permits granted by each other, facilitating lawful carrying of firearms across state lines for individuals who meet the necessary requirements in their home state.
