Wyoming: Minimum Age Lowered for Concealed Carry Permits

Effective July 1, 2026, Wyoming’s HB 96 lowers the minimum age to obtain a concealed carry permit from 21 to 18. Wyoming already permits most residents to carry a concealed firearm without a permit, and state law expressly allows employees with proper licenses to store firearms in their vehicles while on employer property. Notwithstanding, private employers retain the right to restrict firearms inside their facilities and on their premises more broadly.
