I live in VA and have the VA permit.. Then I got Florida.. and tomorrow I mail my UTAH application.. Once that is received, this is what "my" map will look like.

I wish the state governments would fix the rest of our country..

With what you've got now, it just adds NH - but I'm a firm believer in getting as many permits as you can. It runs up the numbers of how many permits have been issued and makes our position stronger. You can also get PA for about $26, although it won't add anything to your count either.

Seems hard to apply.. PA State police says I can.. But as I read differnt sheriffs applications it looks like I need to be a resident. Is there an easier way?

good point.. one place I wanted to carry was Colorado.. One would think that they would be more like the "old west" since they were a big part of it.

You're SOL on Colorado. No non-resident Co. permit, they don't accept the VA resident permit, and they don't take anybody else's non-resident permit...

My permit lists include the following....
Virginia
Pennsylvania
North Dakota
New Hampshire
Utah
Worth every penny!
I think and just going off the top of my head the fee for renewal on the Utah permit is $10.00 Why not invest in this permit?!

Yeah, but AAA isn't on every street corner. Most chain drug stores do passport photos, in a lot of cases it's going to be cheaper to pay to have them done than drive far enough to get them for free...

Alright just when i think I have it straight I go and get confused again.... I see some of you getting a FL permit along with your Utah permit. I am not quite sure why? On handgunlaw.us website I have created my ccw map with and without FL. The only state that changes on the map is KS. KS states that you have to be a resident of the state that they honor so I do not see the reason for getting a FL permit. Since I still would not be able to carry in KS?. I could be wrong and would love to hear others opinions.

The training/proof you used to get your VA permit works for the FL permit, but it is pricey when compared with Utah..

FL...

License Type / Application Fee / Finger Print / License Fee /Total Fee / Renewal Fee

CWP in state N/A $42 $75 $117 $65

CWP(Out-of-State) N/A $42$75 $117 $107

UT New $65.50

UT Renew $10

So - total costs for non resident for 10 years (if you already have VA proof of cometency)

FL $117 + $107 = $224
UT $65.50 + Class $75 + $10 = $150.50
