Nevada Drops States From Reciprocity List

Recently Nevada removed several states concealed weapons permits from the list of states it recognizes (effective 7/01/2021​). Is the plot of our tyrannical governor and attorney general?

This is due to changes in other states' processes. Nevada requires that a state's permit and process be similar to our own. The list is updated regularly as other states change their​ process. 

Per NRS 202.3689, this is checked every year before July 1:

​(a) Determine whether each state requires a person to complete any training, class or program before the issuance of a permit to carry a concealed firearm in that state.
(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.

These are the states Nevada no longer recognizes:

• Florida
• Ohio
• Mississippi Enhanced Permits 
• South Carolina
• South Dakota Enhanced Permits 
• Utah provisional permits (18-20)
• Virginia

Florida will no longer recognize Nevada's permit as we do not grant them reciprocity. This is the situation prior to 2015 with that state in particular.
