Packing.org is not the shining example of being up to date...the ONLY place you should accept as being valid is the Official States pages. That being said, Packing.Org is a great launching point.

Keep in mind, the owner of the site has almost nothing to do with it anymore.

Reciprocity means "sharing". To have reciprocity, each state must accept eachothers CCW. Since California doesn't accept ANYONES ccw, you cannot, by definition, have reciprocity.

Seems like a minor point of arguement, but those kinds of errors in fact (mistaking one term for another) is what gets people in trouble..

"Well, Officer, I was told on CALCCW.COM that California has reciprocity with X, so I should be able to carry in California with my X CCW".

Also, keep in mind, even if California DOES establish reciprocity with another state, I seriously doubt they will accept Non Resident permits, and if they do (by some fluke), I don't think they will accept CA residents with Non Res permits from another state (a la Colorado).

Please keep in mind, if someone is going to say something that is not factual, it affects the websites integrity...this is why folks are quick to jump on, and correct erroneous information.
