Nevada Concealed Firearm Permit (CFP) Practice Exam

Under what condition can a CFP be immediately revoked in Nevada?

1. Failure to attend annual training

2. Being convicted of a felony

3. Not using the firearm for one year

4. Lending the permit to another person

The correct answer is: Being convicted of a felony

Being convicted of a felony is indeed a condition under which a Concealed Firearm Permit (CFP) can be immediately revoked in Nevada. This is due to the legal stipulations ensuring that individuals who have committed serious crimes, which felonies typically encompass, are prohibited from possessing firearms. The revocation serves to uphold public safety and adherence to state and federal laws, which dictate that individuals with felony convictions are ineligible to carry firearms, ensuring that those who may pose a greater risk to themselves or others do not maintain access to potentially dangerous weapons. In contrast, while not attending annual training or lending the permit to someone else may be grounds for disciplinary action or revocation under specific circumstances, they do not generally lead to immediate revocation as sharply as a felony conviction does. Similarly, not using the firearm for a year does not directly impact the legality of holding a CFP. Hence, the immediate revocation tied to a felony conviction stands out as a critical regulatory measure in maintaining the integrity of the concealed carry system in Nevada.
