However... as of July 1, 2011 Nevada will now recognize Arizona CCW permits. Nevada treats non resident and resident CCW permits the same.

You can get an Arizona permit through the mail in 3 or 4 days. You send them an email, and they mail you a CCW packet right out. You will need to make a copy, front and back, of your Oregon CCW permit, get your finger prints done on the supplied card, and mail everything back. In a week you should now have your AZ permit which will allow you to carry in Nevada!

I sent my packet back to AZ DPS this afternoon on 6/15. We'll see how long it takes... hoping for less than a week if the accounts I've been reading online are accurate.

I love AZ though, its a CCW, not CHL. If you can hide the M14, then by all means, carry it.

The way I read the instructions from Arizona, it could take from "2 weeks to 2 months." So, waiting is likely in order ....
