Ms. Curtis,

You made a public records request for any and all policies, procedures,
directives, memorandums, and any other guiding materials regarding matters
pertaining to firearm acquisition, licensure, use, and transfer. With the
exception of possibly the Department of Criminal Investigation's rules on
concealed weapon permits, our Office is not the custodian of any responsive
public records. The concealed weapon permit rules are located on the
Wyoming Secretary of State's website. That website address is:
http://soswy.state.wy.us/rules/.

The rules are located under the Attorney General "agency" and the concealed
firearms "program."

Thanks.

Ryan
