Utah is cheaper in the long run and gives you more states.Or a FL non-res. Used it last time I went to AL.
good point Texas. I guess it just depends on where you're headed!Well, it's not just Utah vs. NH, it's Utah + Virginia vs NH + Virginia.
In that case, Delaware is the only nearby state that Utah gets you that NH doesn't. And out west, I believe there are only three additional states (MN, WA and NV).
I just mention it because there are likely some folks who aren't bothered about those four specific states, and would prefer the low cost and no additional training necessary for NH.
But don't forget, there are some people who have no intentions of getting a Virginia CHP. That would be me. In my case, the Utah decision was a no-brainer.Well, it's not just Utah vs. NH, it's Utah + Virginia vs NH + Virginia.

I'm not sure why they'd say such a thing, since they have no authority over what out-of-state permits are recognized by, for instance, Mississippi.PLEASE NOTE : The State of New Hampshire will only recognize resident concealed handgun licenses from these states. Concealed handgun licenses issued by the State of New Hampshire to out-of-state residents are ONLY valid within the State of New Hampshire.
If I had to guess, whoever made those edits to the website is keying on this line - "shall issue a license to such applicant authorizing the applicant to carry a loaded pistol or revolver in this state".159:6 License to Carry. –
I. The selectmen of a town or the mayor or chief of police of a city or some full-time police officer designated by them respectively, upon application of any resident of such town or city, or the director of state police, or some person designated by such director, upon application of a nonresident, shall issue a license to such applicant authorizing the applicant to carry a loaded pistol or revolver in this state for not less than 4 years from the date of issue, if it appears that the applicant has good reason to fear injury to the applicant's person or property or has any proper purpose, and that the applicant is a suitable person to be licensed. Hunting, target shooting, or self-defense shall be considered a proper purpose. The license shall be valid for all allowable purposes regardless of the purpose for which it was originally issued. The license shall be in duplicate and shall bear the name, address, description, and signature of the licensee. The original shall be delivered to the licensee and the duplicate shall be preserved by the people issuing the same for 4 years. When required, license renewal shall take place within the month of the fourth anniversary of the license holder's date of birth following the date of issuance. The license shall be issued within 14 days after application, and, if such application is denied, the reason for such denial shall be stated in writing, the original of which such writing shall be delivered to the applicant, and a copy kept in the office of the person to whom the application was made. The fee for licenses issued to residents of the state shall be $10, which fee shall be for the use of the law enforcement department of the town granting said licenses; the fee for licenses granted to out-of-state residents shall be $20, which fee shall be for the use of the state. The director of state police is hereby authorized and directed to prepare forms for the licenses required under this chapter and forms for the application for such licenses and to supply the same to officials of the cities and towns authorized to issue the licenses. No other forms shall be used by officials of cities and towns. The cost of the forms shall be paid out of the fees received from nonresident licenses.
II. No photograph or fingerprint shall be required or used as a basis to grant, deny, or renew a license to carry for a resident or nonresident, unless requested by the applicant.
