CCW and citizenship

[Colorancher]

My friend is a Canadian but has been living and working in the states for 10 years. His wife is a citizen. Can he get a CCw or do you have to be a citizen?

If he's a legal resident, he can get a Colorado permit...

Am I eligible for a concealed handgun permit if I’m here on a work Visa, an immigrant or a non-immigrant?
Answer:Yes. If you have a work visa, you must provide the work visa, a completed supplemental form, proof of residency showing you have resided here for at least 90 days and possess a valid hunting license. You must also submit all documents listed on the front page of this guide, If you are a nonimmigrant with an “admission number” or an immigrant with an “INS form” (green card), you must provide these documents: a completed supplemental form and proof of residency showing you have resided here for at least 90 days. You will also need to submit all documents listed on the front page of this guide.

If the "hunting license" part of that is correct, that would also require hunter's safety unless there is an exception for non-citizens.

The hunting license requirement is only for non-immigrant visa holders. Permanent resident card holders do not need it. The latter's rights mirror citizens.
