In Idaho, who is responsible for issuing concealed carry permits?

The Department of Public Safety
The local county sheriff
Idaho State Police
The Federal Bureau of Investigation

The correct answer is: The local county sheriff

In Idaho, the local county sheriff is responsible for issuing concealed carry permits. This is because sheriffs are elected officials and representatives of the local government, making them the best authority to regulate and monitor concealed carry permits for their jurisdiction. While the Department of Public Safety, Idaho State Police, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation are all involved in various aspects of law enforcement, they do not have the authority to issue concealed carry permits as it falls under the responsibility of the local sheriff.
