Who is responsible for issuing concealed carry permits in South Dakota?

The Department of Justice
The South Dakota Sheriff's Office
The local police department
County sheriffs

The correct answer is: County sheriffs

In South Dakota, county sheriffs are responsible for issuing concealed carry permits. This is because they have jurisdiction over the entire county and are responsible for maintaining peace and order. The Department of Justice, local police department, and South Dakota Sheriff's Office may play a role in the application process, but ultimately it is the county sheriffs who have the authority to approve and issue concealed carry permits. Therefore, options A, B, and C are incorrect.
