    Hey guys I was flipping through the dial when I came across a site fighting for the same cause, when this caught my attention. This is from the forums on their site.What do you think? This was taken from.....
    http://forum.opencarry.org/forums/s...-You-Must-Already-Have-A-Permit-In-Your-State

    Utah To Restrict Carry Permits. You Must Already Have A Permit In Your State

    I just got off the phone with a Utah Bureau Of Criminal Investigations Investigator (BCI). He confirmed that there is a bill in the Legislature, and it is likely to pass, that would require that anyone who applies for a Utah Concealed Carry Permit would have to have a permit in the State in which they reside. This was the result of States threatening to pull their reciprocity with Utah due to folks getting a Utah permit and not getting one from their home State.

    The investigator I spoke with said he believed this would pass the legislature. He told me that BCI was lobbying to have things left as they were but he doubted that would happen.

    I asked him if there would be a “grandfather” clause put in for people who already had their paperwork put in the system and he said “probably”, otherwise it would create a huge problem to refund folks their money and start all over again.

    Their session ends on Feb. 28.

    I expressed my views and those of other instructors to him (that we keep the system the way it is). He agreed, but didn’t think that was going to happen.

    I teach the Utah Course every Sat. at Tyson's Corner, VA and charge $80. If anyone is interested, please go to:

    www.utahconcealedcarryclass.com

    P.S. Also I am not a member of this site nor am I trying to promote them. Just found this interesting thought some others here might want to see this.

    That was covered on an earlier thread. This is in regards to reciprocity. If Utah has a reciprocity agreement with your state of residence, you must also have a CCW from there for the Utah to be valid elsewhere. This is to keep people from just getting a Utah CCW and screwing their state of residence out of funds. Since MD does not have an agreement, we are good to go.

    Ergo, if someone lives in VA or PA and they have a Utah permit, they must now also have a permit from their home state as well.
