What is considered a prohibited possessor of firearms in Arizona?

Persons under the age of 18
Individuals with a DUI conviction
Individuals convicted of a felony
Non-residents

The correct answer is: Individuals convicted of a felony

In Arizona, individuals who have been convicted of a felony are considered prohibited possessors of firearms. This means that they are not allowed to own or possess firearms under Arizona law. Felony convictions usually involve serious offenses and are seen as disqualifying factors due to the potential risks associated with allowing individuals who have committed these crimes to possess firearms. It is important to understand and adhere to these laws to ensure public safety and prevent the misuse of firearms by individuals who have a criminal history. As for the other options: A. Persons under the age of 18 are generally not allowed to purchase or possess firearms, but this does not apply to individuals who are considered prohibited possessors in Arizona. B. While individuals with a DUI conviction may face restrictions on their firearm rights in some states, it is not typically a disqualifying factor for firearm possession in Arizona. D. Being a non-resident does not automatically disqualify someone from possessing firearms in Arizona, as long as they meet the requirements for firearm ownership in the state.
