Who has an out of state CCW permit?

[Minuteman]

My buddy who is has a CCW in AZ acutally practices (dry fire drills) holding one of his daughters.

Thanks for the hat tip. The more responsible and legally armed citizens that carry has a direct and proportional effect on violent crime.

The more of 'us' that carry the safer society becomes, and the less we must rely on a (tax funded) police force.

Who said, an armed society is a polite society?

For those who might not know, that would be Dr. John Lott, and I'm sure he's appreciate the props.

He also did what many consider the seminal study on handgun violence in the U.S., "More Guns, Less Crime"

I still have the card (which expires August 2013) but no longer live in VA.

I still work in VA so I'm there almost every day, but only recently discovered that there is a non-resident version. I have not looked into getting one yet.

Anyone here know about the NR VA CCW?

 

[Yoboney]

Was wondering how many members have an out of state CCW permit?

Which do you have? More than one?

It may be better to ask how many don't have an out of state permit. most of us probably do have out of state permits.

If I'm not mistaken....all you need to do is give VSP your new address so they know where to send your renewal notice to.

 

[swinokur]

you can email Marie Lucas at VSP with address changes. She will mail you a card with your new address until you renew.

MD, Utah, PA, and Florida ... don't ask me how I got my MD, as I might have to dispose of you

It would be great if it were that simple. I've sent an email to VSP to find out what steps have to be taken. My guess is it will pretty much be the same as applying for a NR permit.

 

[swinokur]

I changed addresses. Sent an email, They sent me a card with my new address on it.

Nothing more required.

Submitted my paperwork for Utah last week, I hope to have it before July. I'm not sure if someone mentioned this yet but I bought a great book from the Legal Heat folk's who also did my Utah training class at Bass Pro (Arundel Mills mall). It's a quick reference guide on how friendly each state if with firearms, which accept out of state concealed licenses, etc. I highly recommend it. I'm not trying to turn this in to a commercial or anything but this book was worth every penny.

http://www.mylegalheat.com/legal-heat-book.html

From their website:
"Legal Heat: 50 State Guide to Firearm Laws and Regulations is the only traveler's guide book on the market that is written and edited by experienced firearm instructors and attorneys. Legal Heat contains an overview of all 50 states' firearm laws, including prohibited areas and reciprocity information. It's a must have for any firearm owner that would like to safely, and legally, transport a firearm throughout this great nation.

I've heard of that book. My problem with buying a book for info...by the time it gets published it could already be out of date. What is the publication date on it?

 

[swinokur]

web sites like www.handgunlaw.is and www.usacarry.com would seem a better way to stay current. As mentioned, books can become outdated by changes. What does the book say about NM's recent changes for example?

 

[pooh67br]

Utah, Virginia and Florida

you must have lived there before. am I right?

 

[swinokur]

I have NR permits from VA, UT, FL and NV.

Never lived in any of those states.

I'm at work currently and don't have the book on me but I remember the publication date being fairly recent. I would venture to guess it says nothing about NM and you stated it's a recent change. I think it's safe to say though that 99% of most state firearm laws are not going to change over night. On top of that it's really just a quick reference guide for you to have in your bag. I think when it comes down to checking something as important as a law that may keep you out of prison you should always check multiple sources. I should also mention that they do have phone apps that are updated a little quicker then their book is, with a very good UI.

Just out of curiosity, why go for both the VA and UT if UT is covered in VA? I've seen quite a few people say they have both and figure I must be missing something.
