What are the requirements to apply for a professional permit to carry weapons in Iowa?

  1. Background check and firearms training

  2. Background check only

  3. Firearms training only

  4. No specific requirements

The correct answer is: Background check and firearms training

To apply for a professional permit to carry weapons in Iowa, both a background check and firearms training are required. Option B is incorrect because while a background check is necessary, firearms training is also mandatory. Similarly, option C is incorrect because while firearms training is required, a background check is also necessary. Option D is incorrect because there are specific requirements in Iowa for obtaining a professional permit, including both a background check and firearms training. In order to legally carry weapons in Iowa, both of these requirements must be met in accordance with state regulations.
