Yeah...CT won't accept that one. I'm surprised FL did though...they want range time for NRA courses as well.

What did you use for training to get the other 4? CT probably accepts the same training. I would recommend going ANYWHERE else than the guy in Bristol...assuming it is Eimer. I can't find the PAFOA thread now...but not too long ago on his website he had it that FL was no longer accepting the DD214. When asked about his source for that info all he would reply back with was "check with FL." FL had no such change. ETA: Found it

WIDOJ won't release the list until Nov 1. The law states any state that does a background check when issuing a permit, or for a person lives in a state that doesn't do BG checks (which would they be?), said person can submit to WI for one. WIDOJ is taking creative license and saying they will only look at states that do BG checks AND require training. So they are already acting outside the scope of the law. We'll have to see what they come up with.

I was referring to Scrap's comment about open carry...I assumed he was referring to pistol. Just wanted to point out...FOPA does not have a "separation" requirement.

Incorrect. PA has similar to/from restrictions without a permit as NJ. You can't just drive around with it in your car...even unloaded.

Bait and switch. Salesperson: "I'll sell you this car for $1M." Customer: "That's outrageous!" Salesperson: "Ok, I can lower the price to $100K" Customer: "That's much better. Sold."

they both will have to mail the packet as they both require fingerprints. FL required prints be done by LEO, AZ doesn't care who does them.

Only the good, productive ones.

This. if you don't need the coverage in FL, AZ is the way to go. It's half the cost of the FL license initially, and 1/3 the cost for renewals. The law say hunter safety and any NRA class...doesn't specify live fire...yet. Or if you have a license from another state...that will suffice.

NJ has no such law. Only AK, AR, LA, MI, NC, NE, OH, OK, SC, TX have it...and TX recently removed the penalty for not notifying...but the law itself is still on the books.

FOPA doesn't require separation either.

AZ gets you NM and KS as well...

I thought I remembered seeing that somewhere also...but couldn't put a cite with it...

If you don't need the coverage in FL, I'd recommend the AZ instead of FL. It is about 1/2 the cost initially, gives you almost identical reciprocity, prints can be done by anybody, can do the whole process thru the mail in about 2 weeks, and the UT course will suffice for the training.

Without a permit, PA has most of the same to/from restrictions as NJ. There is no open carry within a vehicle.

NV does not make that distinction. CO, FL, ME, MI, NH and SC are the only states that do that.

He'll need the FPID to purchase ammo as well, correct?

This would allow me, as a PA resident, to carry in NJ with my PA LTCF...but would not allow you, as a NJ resident, to carry in NJ with a FL/UT/AZ permit.

Living in PA, I see 2 issues...forgive me if they seem overly simplistic. 1) The big problem is the fact that NJ law calls "borrowing" a "transfer". To me, a transfer is a change of ownership. If i let you use my gun for you range trip that day, it's not a change of ownership. 2) Since there is no registration, who is to say the gun she uses in that HD situation isn't hers?

True. In fact I have UT and AZ for the added reciprocity. However, if you wanted to visit CO, FL, ME, MI, NH or SC, you would need either a reciprocal home state permit or one from each of those states...as they only honor resident permits. Granted, it's only 6 states...but just something to think about....as that number could increase. I'm certainly not trying to knock Constitutional Carry...but until it gets a little more widespread...an optional home state permit would be the way to go.

Keep in mind...that because VT doesn't have an option permit...they have NO reciprocity with any other state.

The permit would only be required if OC in Philadelphia. The rest of the state no permit required...but a permit is required for vehicle carry. Also, RE: PA option...no training is required.

He was walking down the street...on his way to the store.

For you, a NJ resident, the FL permit is NOT honored by SC.

Just for clarification purposes....The "F*C&ing" cop...was actually the 2nd on the scene... "Get on the F%^^&ing ground now" Was the first thing out of his mouth..
