According to testimony given by MD State Police in the MD General Assembly concerning establishing reciprocity for other state's permits, the process for investigating permit applications is SO comprehensive in MD--and ALL other states are so woefully inept and ineffectual that it is their opinion that NO other state's permitting requirements measure up to MDs, even though MD has no range qualification requirement or classroom training requirement...
So, by the MSPs logic, EVERY state in the union should recognize MDs permits,because they are so super-duper flawless and so far above every other state in stringency and depth of investigation...
The problem with that is that ANYONE who knows anything about the permitting process in MD knows that it has WAY more to do with who you know, and how much money you donate to the Governor's campaign fund that criminal backgrounds, civic responsibility, or reputation...
Is it any surprise that NV doesn't recognize MD permits?
That is ok, MD is likely to get their ass handed to them in the courts over their permitting process or lack thereof.
How'd they come up with that list?The states agreed to at the May 5 meeting are: Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Rhode Island, Tennessee and West Virginia
How'd they come up with that list?
I don't see a commonality among them. Training varies widely.
Unless they're all resident-only permits?
And WTF difference does that make? If I pass a background check, I pass a background check, no matter whether it's run by/in WI or UT or FL.

I believe NC recognizes more than FL

14‑415.24. Reciprocity; out‑of‑state handgun permits.
(a) A valid concealed handgun permit or license issued by another state is valid in North Carolina.
(b) [removed]
(c) Every 12 months after the effective date of this subsection, the Department of Justice shall make written inquiry of the concealed handgun permitting authorities in each other state as to: (i) whether a North Carolina resident may carry a concealed handgun in their state based upon having a valid North Carolina concealed handgun permit and (ii) whether a North Carolina resident may apply for a concealed handgun permit in that state based upon having a valid North Carolina concealed handgun permit. The Department of Justice shall attempt to secure from each state permission for North Carolina residents who hold a valid North Carolina concealed handgun permit to carry a concealed handgun in that state, either on the basis of the North Carolina permit or on the basis that the North Carolina permit is sufficient to permit the issuance of a similar license or permit by the other state.

I hear that line from every new soldier that gets their concealed permit, because they say it in the class, but alas its not true.
NC - 34
FL - 35 recognize FL's permit, but because Vermont doesn't have a permit they can't extend reciprocity to its citizens unless they have a non resident permit of Florida or another state which Florida recognizes.
Plus you can take a cheaper NRA course instead of the 8-hour NC class.
