Who is eligible to possess a firearm in Alaska?

Anyone over 21 years of age
Only Alaska residents
Anyone not prohibited by law
Only U.S. citizens

The correct answer is: Anyone not prohibited by law

In Alaska, eligibility to possess a firearm is determined by whether an individual is prohibited by law from doing so. This means that individuals who are not restricted or prohibited by law, such as convicted felons or individuals with certain mental health conditions, are eligible to possess a firearm. Therefore, the correct answer is C - Anyone not prohibited by law. Option A is not entirely accurate as there are exceptions where individuals under 21 years of age may still be eligible to possess a firearm. Option B is also incorrect as non-residents may still be eligible to possess a firearm in Alaska as long as they are not prohibited by law. Option D is too restrictive as non-U.S. citizens who are not prohibited by law can also legally possess a firearm in Alaska.
