  1. Yes, without restrictions

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only if they work in Alabama

  4. Yes, but with certain restrictions

The correct answer is: Yes, but only if they work in Alabama

Non-residents of Alabama can apply for an Alabama pistol permit if they work in Alabama. Although non-residents are not typically eligible for an Alabama pistol permit, an exception is made for those who work in the state. This exception allows non-residents who work in Alabama to obtain a permit in order to legally carry a pistol while working in the state. This allows for individuals who may not be residents of Alabama but have a valid reason to carry a pistol while conducting work-related activities within the state.
