VA CCW VS UTAH OR OTHER STATES?

[Whites of Their Eyes]

Can't speak for Texas but for the others on your list I either had to train and apply there (NV & ID) or apply there (WA & OR).

That is why I didn't touch on those ones. Texas requires the training be completed in Texas, but the rest can be done online and/or via mail.

My VA license will expire in a couple of years. I guess I will just not renew it and get the UT license at the expiring of VA. I don't see VA license having any advantage over UT. Or, am I missing something?

Having multiple is usually a good idea as reciprocity/recognition changes often enough.

Who knows what the reciprocity/recognition map will look like in two years...

Yeh... you got a point there.

Since you currently have Virginia,

Getting Utah now would add 2 states (Washington state and Delaware)

Getting Florida now would add 2 states as well (Florida and Delaware)

Getting Arizona now would add 1 state (Delaware)

You could also add just Delaware with a Maine permit

Which one covers NV, AZ, and OR?

I would definitely like WA to be covered for I sparingly go fishing/hunting trips, and for NV & AZ... well for casino trip mostly.

Everything covers Arizona. You actually do not even need a permit in Arizona

All of those except Maine covers Nevada

Nothing covers Oregon except an Oregon permit.

I personally have CA, UT, AZ, FL, and NH. I had VA and (accidently) let it expire.

I guess I will keep VA and apply for UT later and that will pretty much cover most of western states I visit frequently.

Why not just get WA when you are there? No classes or other training requirements. Only an application, fingerprints, background check and the application fee. Mine was $48 at the Spokane PD and took less that 1.5hrs. Most of the time was waiting for others to be printed for other purposes. Permit was in the mail shortly thereafter.

Sorry for the confusion, I meant to say that I go to Utah quite often for work. Utah permit covers WA.
