Any person who can reasonably justify going armed meets the criteria of section 724.8 and who files an application in accordance with 724.11 may shall be issued a nonprofessional permit to carry weapons. Such permits shall be on a form prescribed and published by the commissioner of public safety, which shall be readily distinguishable from the professional permit, and shall identify the holder thereof, and state the reason for the issuance of the permit, and the limits of the authority granted by such permit. All permits so issued shall be for a definite period as established by the issuing officer, but in no event shall exceed a period of twelve months five years and shall be valid throughout the state, except where the possession or carrying of a firearm is prohibited by federal or state law.
