I applied for a permit in Maine, planning for a vacation there in April. I called last week and asked the status. They had not even started processing my application, and they had had it for over a month. They told me it would be another 90 days minimum. I told them to send my check and application back. I am changing my vacation plans to Washington State, where my Oklahoma permit is honored through reciprocity.
Let's see... they get $60 per application. Process them timely, and you get more money. Hire more help. Not difficult to figure out. Or how about this? Honor other state's permits, and your number of non-resident permit applications will decrease.
No need for a permit in the home however we have had 60 people in the last 45 days sign up for NRA certified courses from the region.
Of those states that honor out of state permits, Maine's list does appear to be the smallest. New Mexico is making a big push to match, though.Or how about this? Honor other state's permits, and your number of non-resident permit applications will decrease.
