I'm trying to put some information together about CC nation-wide, and I would like to be able to review the minimum age for obtaining a concealed carry permit in each of the 50 states (or all 48 that allow some form of CC). I have already checked several other CC sites for a complete list, and I have tried several google searches for information, but I've been unable to find what I'm looking for.

If anyone can provide a link to a site that lists the minimum age for obtaining a CC permit in each state, I would be extremely pleased. Otherwise, I suppose I will have to start checking the information on each individual state police website.

Thanks,
Steve

Then you can check State-by-State. Look at the last page of each PDF.

Alabama: 18.

On edit: Individual sheriffs may choose not to issue permits younger than 21 or whatever age they set as a lower limit.
