Which of the following is NOT a factor in denying an Oklahoma Handgun License application?

A felony conviction
Being over the age of 65
Being adjudicated as mentally incompetent
Having a protective order issued against you

The correct answer is: Being over the age of 65

Being over the age of 65 is not a factor that would lead to the denial of an Oklahoma Handgun License application. Age alone does not disqualify an individual from obtaining a handgun license since laws typically do not impose restrictions based on age beyond the minimum age requirement specified for firearm ownership. On the other hand, felony convictions, mental incompetence adjudications, and the presence of protective orders are all significant legal factors that can adversely affect an individual's eligibility for a handgun license. Felony convictions often bar individuals from lawfully possessing firearms due to public safety concerns. Similarly, being adjudicated as mentally incompetent indicates a legal determination that a person may pose risks associated with firearm use. Additionally, having a protective order can reflect on a person's risk factors concerning violence or threats, justifying a denial based on safety considerations.
