Default Nevada Drops Utah and Florida

Serious bummer.

Nevada Will No Longer Recognize Utah and Florida Right-to-Carry Permits

Thursday, June 25, 2009

Effective, July 1, Nevada will no longer recognize Right-to-Carry permits from Utah or Florida. They have, however, added Ohio and West Virginia as recognized states.

Each May, the Nevada Department of Public Safety conducts an audit of states and their Right-to-Carry laws for the purpose of determining which states it will recognize.

The Nevada DPS dropped Utah because it does not have a live fire requirement, which is a part of Nevada's training requirements. When the Nevada DPS first began its state by state audit of Right-to-Carry laws in 2007, DPS admitted to NRA representatives that they overlooked the live fire training requirement. After further review, they determined that Utah wasn't similar enough to keep it on the list of recognized states.

Florida will no longer be recognized because its permits are now valid for seven years instead of five.

The Nevada DPS and the Nevada Sheriffs and Chiefs will be hosting their annual Right-to-Carry forum in Carson City in August with a teleconference feed to Las Vegas. We encourage all members to attend this informational meeting. Details will be forthcoming.

Please continue checking your email and NRA-ILA :: for updates.

Considering the economy it does not surprise me - I bet one thing that was not mentioned is that they are hoping they can generate revenue from people applying for a NV permit and PAYING THE FEE.

Still, crummy news to hear. But since renewal for Utah is only $10 every 5 years I won't complain as much since I live far from NV.

I havent even recieved my Utah yet because of the back log and Nevada was the only reason I got it. I could have just got the Nevada but my instructer adviced me to just get the Utah so I am good everywhere. Oh well.

So why don't they recognize California CCW. I can't imagine any other state has stricter CCW laws than us. What is their rationale for declining to recognize ours???

Because California doesn't accept Nevada.

Another reason to have yourself covered with the insurance of more than 1 permit if you can. Nevada was my first, I live near Nevada and now have a 2nd home there so a non-res. permit there is something I feel obligated to do. My Arizona permit also covers Nevada.

You do have to train in state for a Nevada non-resident permit, other than that it is a rather simple process and shall issue. They are good for 5 years now as well.

Also, what's with the immediate notice? A few months buffer would have been nice so people could make NV permit arrangements.

CA does not meet NV's requirements to be considered.

Nevada Revised Statue 202.3689
1. On or before July 1 of each year, the Department shall:
(a) Examine the requirements for the issuance of a permit to carry a concealed firearm in each state and determine whether the requirements of each state are substantially similar to or more stringent than the requirements set forth in NRS 202.3653 to 202.369, inclusive.
(b) Determine whether each state has an electronic database which identifies each individual who possesses a valid permit to carry a concealed firearm issued by that state and which a law enforcement officer in this State may access at all times through a national law enforcement telecommunications system.
(c) Prepare a list of states that meet the requirements of paragraphs (a) and (b). A state must not be included in the list unless the Nevada Sheriffs’ and Chiefs’ Association agrees with the Department that the state should be included in the list.
(d) Provide a copy of the list prepared pursuant to paragraph (c) to each law enforcement agency in this State.
2. The Department shall, upon request, make the list prepared pursuant to subsection 1 available to the public.

Didn't NV just recently add UT, or am I getting my facts screwed up?

In either case, this stinks! I travel FREQUENTLY to NV (and AZ) and am waiting for my UT non-res permit to finish processing as we speak!!
