If you read the LAW, Utah requirements do meet Nevada requirements. The problem is that Nevada law gives excessive latitude to the Sheriffs and Police Chiefs Association to interpret the law and formulate the rules.As i hear it, until they bring there standards up to meet ours, NO
so said sheriff Galespy at one of his meetings with the public...
But Nevada does have a non resident permit for about $125/ classes and all and it takes about two weeks to get it ..
I have gone to the last two" Sheriffs and Police Chiefs Association meetings" and this was discussed in length......but you are prob right...$$$ drives the local law.....doninvegas wrote:If you read the LAW, Utah requirements do meet Nevada requirements.

My bet is that the Sheriffs and Police Chiefs decided that they were losing too much money to out of state permits. It is impossible to know for sure because their meetings are not subject to the open meetings laws because the Sheriffs and Police Chiefs Association is not a government agency.
It was said that Utah law does not require shooting quals; hence "not substantially similar" to Nevada law in the opinion of the NSCA.doninvegas wrote:If you read the LAW, Utah requirements do meet Nevada requirements.

Nevada LAW does not require shooting qualification either, it only requires familiarity with the type of firearm to be carried, same as Utah law. It is the Sheriffs and Chiefs Association that has interpreted the law to require range qualification.rpyne wrote:It was said that Utah law does not require shooting quals; hence "not substantially similar" to Nevada law in the opinion of the NSCA.doninvegas wrote:If you read the LAW, Utah requirements do meet Nevada requirements.
