In what situation is it legal for a non-resident to carry a concealed handgun in South Dakota?

With a valid permit from any state
Only with a South Dakota non-resident permit
When passing through the state for less than 24 hours
With a permit from a state that has reciprocity with South Dakota

The correct answer is: With a permit from a state that has reciprocity with South Dakota

In South Dakota, a non-resident can carry a concealed handgun legally with a permit from a state that has reciprocity with South Dakota. This means that if a non-resident has a valid concealed carry permit from a state that South Dakota has an agreement of reciprocity with, they are allowed to carry a concealed handgun in South Dakota. Options A, B, and C are not entirely accurate in this context. While some states may accept permits from any state, South Dakota requires non-residents to have a permit from a state that has reciprocity with South Dakota in order to legally carry a concealed handgun.
