States that recognize Virginia CHL's

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - States that recognize Virginia CHL's

Posted: 8/5/2005 7:39:11 AM EDT

I have a pamphlet that is being handed out at my Courthouse that lists the states that accept my Virginia CCW. However, packing.org and the State Police web sites all lists different states. The states listed by this pamphlet inlcude:

Idaho, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas, Michigan, Indiana, Penn, Wyoming, Tenn, West Virginia, North Carolina, Connecticut, Kentucky, Rhode Island, Vermont, Alakska, Arizona, Utah.

Here are the states listed on the State Police web site:

Alaska, Florida, Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee, West Virginia, Louisiana, Michigan, Montana, Oklahoma, Utah

Any idea why there is so much varience?

Check the dates on the State website compared to the pamphlet. A lot more states were added within the last year. Other than that I have no idea.

All of the states are listed on packing.org,as are their reciprocity status with every other state. Links to state police and other controlling authorities and legislation are also included as backup.
It's the CC super-database.

Thas is my point, packing.org's information is different than the Virginia SP web site and the pamphlet that my court house has been handing out.

Yeah, but packing.org links to the legislation in the other states. What our Virignia courthouses say only applies to carry in Virginia.
I'd definitely go with what the other state's state police or other governing authorities say.

My pamphlet was produced by the VASP and says; "The following are states that recognize the permits issued by Virginia and allow them to possess a firearm in their state"

I'd still go with what the other states law enforcement groups say.
Virginia State Police info is gold as far as carrying in VA, but I wouldn't trust their info past Virginia borders.
The discrepancy is intriguing though. You may want to ask the VSP concealed carry guy- Robert Kemmler (sp?) why the discrepancy exists on VSP marked literature. I think his contact info is on the VSP concealed carry section of their website.

You are 100%, before going to any or through any of the questionable states I will be calling that states State Police to make sure 100%. I will also carry the pamphlet and a web site print out in my glove box.

CT and RI have no states listed as honoring their permits. Somethin' aint right.

BTW, am I the only one who hates the new format at Packing.org?

No,you're not. It's annoying. The old "USA Today" style format with large colorful graphics was a bit slow,but was pretty decent.
My only complaint on the old page was the slow load times for the VA gun talk page.
Oh well, it's Mr Solomon's sandbox. It's still the best page on the web for that sort of info.

Does PA honor the VA permit??? I thought I had seen them listed somewhere but when I went to packing.org before starting my current project they weren't listed.

AFAIK, PA still doesn't honor our permits. You can get a non-resident permit from PA which will at least give you the option to still carry there.

No. As VA-gunnut said, we don't have reciprocity with PA. But, they will honor it as proof of reqired
training when you send in your application. You just make a copy of your VA permit, and send it
along with your other paperwork.

Go to Centre County's webpage, and you can download the application. I think mine too maybe two
weeks. Centre County

Thanks, I'll try that. When I was first assigned to the project I did some checking and saw what a PITA it can be to get the NR permit up there that I didn't thnk it'd be worth the effort. But the project has been extended and it looks like I'll be going up there for at least a couple more months.

New Hampshire's non-resident permit is easy to obtain as well and will increase the number of states in which you can legally carry.

So some states honor our permit by itself.
And some states honor our permit but you must use it to obtain there permit?

I'm going to SC this week, and I'm pretty sure I cannot carry there (except in the glovebox, as allowed by their state law) with my VA permit. I checked the SC SLED website, and they do not list VA as a recognized permit.

VA recognizes the SC permit according to the VSP website - but SC has not reciprocated as yet.
