Well that sucks. That's one of the reasons I got the AZ. permit. Would be nice if there was national recognition of all the states or a national CCW permit.

Nor do they recognize Utah's. Speculation is that Nevada stopped recognizing Utah's (don't know about AZ's) because Utah doesn't require a live fire qualification. I keep thinking that it'd be a good idea to get a non-resident Nevada CCW, which I think is available by attending a class in Reno, but I really should check into it further before ignorantly shooting my mouth off here. .

You just made me laugh!!!
It does make to much sense doesn't it.

I would be interested in what you find out.

 
It does, but certain areas of the country are too opposed for it to ever happen.

 
Thanks, Sam. Looks like non-resident permits are available with fee and course/training in the Nevada county where you apply and take the training. (I.e., maybe a few of us should look into a group excursion to Reno for such purposes?) Bring a revolver and a semi-auto if you want to be authorized to carry either type of handgun -- no longer required to list the specific guns you're authorized to carry if you've qualified with the same type as you have on you (semi-auto and/or revolver).

Perhaps. Let's see who is interested. I was intending to do this anyway later this Spring with a friend from Fernley, NV.

 
I have this problem with South Carolina. A recent read of their code however shows an exception for motorcyclists.

(16) Any person on a motorcycle when the pistol is secured in a closed saddlebag or other similar closed accessory container attached, whether permanently or temporarily, to the motorcycle.

I assume I can toss the pistol into my tank bag at the state line?

A "Federal" CCW permit would be nice....

I would be interested if it's after the snow thaws.

 
There is already a national CCW permit. Here's how to get it:

Go down to your local Police Department or Sheriff's Department and join their Reserve Program. You'll go through a weekend academy for 6 months to a year. They'll teach you how to shoot, and you won't even have to pay for ammo. They'll also teach you how to protect your firearm from being taken.

Once done, you will have to put in a few hours per month to stay certified. I've seen from 8 to 24 hours per month.

Along with this, you get a commission card, or whatever your state calls it. With that card, you can carry anywhere in the country. Problem solved.

You will have to maintain your firearms certification by qualifying 2-4 times per year. Again...Free bullets. Many departments will even provide ammo for you to practice with and let you come to classes. This will all help ensure you stay proficient with the gun and actually know how to use it.

Hell, as a side benefit, you will get to know some of your local cops, so the next time you get pulled over, maybe...just maybe they'll recognize you and cut you a break.

Most reserve programs don't even have a Physical conditioning requirement like the full time guys, so there's no push up tests or timed run requirements.

How smart am I??

https://www.chandlerpd.com/gos/F20reserveprog.pdf Not as smart as the Chandler Police Reserve Program, you cannot carry off duty! I was interested in this!

H. RESTRICTIONS
RESERVE OFFICERS:

  1. ARE NOT AUTHORIZED by virtue of their status as reserve officer to carry a concealed weapon when not on duty. Exception: Retired officer reserves are authorized to carry concealed weapons

https://mcsoreservedeputy.com However AJ, I am going over to the Maricopa County Sheriff's Department and check out their Reserve Deputy Program.

When I worked for Metro Mechanical we had a 1948 American LaFrance Fire Truck we restored for Parades and Civic Events. I would drive Sheriff Joe Arpaio around on the truck, I'll talk to Sheriff Joe! Sometimes Joe's wife Ava would ride along with us, I know he'll remember me!

Well that's stupid...Why would you need to carry concealed while ON duty? Duh!!

 
I'd rather just take a course, qualify and pay for the permit...

All that volunteer stuff could negatively impact my riding time.

 
www.frontsight.com offers a 2- or 4-day handgun course and a one day CCW course that's good for Nevada, Arizona, and Utah. Don't let the prices scare you, get on ebay and look for a Front Sight lifetime membership. If you don't see one, message the sellers of Front Sight courses. You'll probably be able to find one for $2-300.

Then, of course, you have to find 4-600 rounds of ammo... :-/
