Got the AZ permit ( two week turnaround ). What else can I add?

You end up with two more.

Florida gets you Florida.

Utah gets you Washington State.

If you go to either FL or WA regularly then go for it.

One other consideration is that reciprocation changes quite often. It might be good to have a backup.

Do you actually travel that much?

Use my AZ to travel. Last year worked everywhere year before a nogo in Illinois. Next year I'm leaving it home a week in MA RI and CT.

You can actually get Connecticut fairly easily through the mail fyi

You do have 35 states with California and Arizona. Utah & Florida would each add a state each. The biggest reason I recommend getting Utah & Florida as well is the reciprocity and recognition change fairly often and usually without much notice. Utah and Florida are both relatively cheap and easy to obtain.

Back up reciprocity seems a good enough reason to get more permits.

I’m not getting good vibes on the UT turnaround and the FL background snafu so I’ll toss a coin.

Utah has 60 days to issue from when they receive the permit. They are currently slower than Arizona. Last I heard, they are near the 60 day mark.

Florida has the background issue and they just elected an anti-gun person to run the Ag department (which issues their CCW's). They are running close to the 90 day mark.

I teach both classes so I hear the timeframes from students. Right now, Utah & Arizona are tied for the strongest two permits (most states) that issue by mail.

If it was me, I would get both Utah and Florida as well. In fact, I have California, Utah, Florida, and Arizona. I also have New Hampshire.

I already had the UT permit... at one point they dropped NV so I acquired the AZ permit to cover my NV trips. Later, UT added NV back again so my AZ permit seemed somewhat superfluous because I don't typically travel up the coast.

Then, in 2015 I got sent to Seattle on business for a week. It was nice knowing the AZ permit had me covered.

Once you get them, it's easy to keep them.

I think it was a typo, but Utah covers you in Washington, not Arizona. Nevada has dropped Utah, Arizona, and Florida in the past.

This is good info for me. Most of my out of state travel is in NV. I guess I'm going to try to get both UT and FL as my discretionary funds allow for maximum flexibility. They're all going to ammo right now

Haha, I understand! Mine too! Just a heads up, I am teaching a Utah class in Stanton on the 19th. It looks like you are in the IE...

You can also get a Nevada permit, but the training has to be done in Nevada...

Bckup for reciprocity is a good idea. while CA, AZ and UT are good, I found ID had a little better reciprocity and covered the routes I regularly drive to see family. It just can't be had by mail. For that UT/AZ/FL seems to be the easiest.

Idaho enhanced is the best if you happen to be in Idaho. The training needs to be in Idaho and you need to apply/renew in person.
