New Hampshire Concealed Carry
New Hampshire is a “constitutional carry state,” meaning guns can be carried in the open or concealed without a permit. Individuals can apply for a concealed handgun license by submitting a Pistol/Revolver License Application (non-resident version).[2] Residents must submit the form to their local law enforcement office in person.
Non-residents must submit the application to the state police by mail to:
