Can a non-resident carry a concealed weapon in South Dakota with a permit issued from another state?

  1. Yes, without restrictions

  2. No

  3. Yes, if the state has reciprocity with South Dakota

  4. Yes, but they must notify law enforcement

The correct answer is: Yes, if the state has reciprocity with South Dakota

This is because a non-resident can only carry a concealed weapon in South Dakota if their state has reciprocity with South Dakota. Option A is incorrect because even though they have a permit from another state, it does not automatically grant them the right to carry a concealed weapon in South Dakota without checking for reciprocity. Option B is incorrect because it states that a non-resident cannot carry a concealed weapon at all, which is not true if they have a permit from a state with reciprocity. Option D is incorrect because notifying law enforcement is not a requirement for a non-resident with a reciprocity permit.
