    Just curious: I've seen a bunch for concealed carry classes for Utah and Florida recently... Does this have any kind of reciprocity in MD - or is this just for folks who travel in/through the other states?

    Its just for the other states that recognize the Utah/Florida CCW permits. This commie state does not recognize any but their own if you are lucky enough to have one.

    The reason I went for my Utah yesterday (props to Genesis Firearms for a great class) is because Pennsylvania and their bloodsucking Attorney General have stopped accepting the Florida and Virginia non-resident permits. So far, they are still acknowledging Utah, I think partially because there is no written formal reciprocity agreement with Utah.

    The Virginia one surprised me when I realized I had been committing a felony by accident by carrying in my vehicle in PA. When you can commit a FELONY and not know about it, there's probably something wrong with the law...

    Negatory. Its YOUR responsibility to check the laws when transporting firearms to another states. You telling the judge and jury for not knowing the law will not give you free out of jail card.

    Just my 2cents.

    You do realize a national study found that the average citizen breaks atleast 3 laws per day. I'll have to find that article again but even if it is YOUR responsibility, it is also a sign of the sad fluster cluck that has become of this country.

    Out of state carry permits are not accepted in the state. Even if someone from Florida comes into the state, they can't conceal carry. The Utah and Florida permits for MD residents allow us to carry outside of the state.

    This. How many times have we heard about people stopping for gas in Maryland while wearing their handgun and getting arrested. When I travel, I make sure I know the laws of the state(s) I'll be traveling to and through.

    As others have said the out of state permits are used for while you are outside Maryland.
    Maryland may not want you to be able to defend yourself but many other states think you should be able to. You should take advantage of your ability to defend yourself whenever possible, so getting the Utah, Florida or Arizona permits helps you do this. Be prepared.
