  5. Licensing Laws Only: Gun Permits

    You may not need a gun permit as a private investigator. Only 5% of all PI's have a need for a conceal weapon, as most assignments are non-confrontational and are undercover. Still, this new forum will explore the state-by-state requirements (if any) for your consideration.
