Seems to be kept very up to date and allows you to see where your non-res (+res) permits will allow you to carry all at once. An excellent tool but the typical disclaimer that you are ultimately responsible for ensuring that you comply with local laws must be given. If you're traveling to other locations check for reciprocity as close to the source as you can![]()
According to that site, MA doesn't accept a LTC from any other state. Same for ME as well, which sucks for me as we have property in ME. Would be real nice if ME recognized TX, or UT or FL permits (or NH's for that matter).
The good news is I can carry in VT, the bad news is that there is no reason for me to set foot in VT lol.
EDIT:
Also, I am trying to figure out how many permits I would have to get to be able to drive down to South Carolina while carrying the entire way. It looks as though I'm screwed because I can get permits for: SC, Mass, CT, MD, NJ, and FL (gets me CC in DE), but I cannot seem to find a state that has reciprocity with NY, and I kinda have to drive through NY. So much for driving down the eastern seaboard carrying non-stop.
It was a fun thought exercise, way too expensive to actually carry out. I'd probably just get an SC permit and just drive straight to VA where I would be able to CC.
There is a difference between "the allows for permits" and "YOU can get one". Unless you have a name I'd recognize from the news, the chances you can get a NJ permit are slim. MD also reserves permits for persons of privilege, power and influence.It looks as though I'm screwed because I can get permits for: SC, Mass, CT, MD, NJ, and FL (gets me CC in DE),
NY accepts NY only and does not issue non-res.
