Just out of curiosity, how many concealed permits can one have?
I keep hearing different numbers ranging from 2 max to however many you want to pay for.
I believe the answer is a qualified (b): However many you want to pay for and will qualify for. Some states have stricter requirements than others. Virginia, for example, requires you to have some sort of proof of training, be it hunter safety, a DD-214, etc. New York requires you to be rich, well-connected, and/or famous, and Alaska's requires you to be able to hit a moose from a helicopter. Those last two may be a bit of an exxageration, but some states do require a safety/training course, some with live-fire and some without.
A couple of good sources for CCW info state-by-state are:

In some states, a CCW (CHP, CHL, etc) is needed for Open Carry also. Other states, like our lovely aforementioned Virginia, require no permit to OC.
