    Question Permit to carry in multiple states?

    Currently live in Southern Washington, but considering working in Portland. I have my permit to carry in WA but can I get a permit to carry in OR? If so what steps do I have to take?

    I think your good. Have not lived there for about 7 years. Did you look to see if your permit is riciprocal for OR? If not get a Utah permit

    Here's a LINK to USA carry's reciprocity maps. It looks like your Washington permit is not honored in Oregon, but they do offer permits to non-residents. Looks like you'll have to jump through the hoops to get a second permit.

    I don't know if it helps but you can get a floride license without residency and it's valid in something like 30 states. Don't quote me on it though just what I have been told by a battle of mine who is from florida and has one. I believe texas is now valid in multipul states but don't know about their residency rules.

    Here you go: http://www.handgunlaw.us/states/washington.pdf

    There was a discussion here a few years ago about this very subject. IIRC, having a FL and a UT CCP will cover most of the states with reciprocal agreements.

    Can't answer that specific Q per se, but I have non res CCW for FL, UT, NV, HH, ME, and my res in MA. I did that as it covers almost every state I may wan to CCW in. Between FL and Utah, you cover a large portion of the US. See maps for actual states covered.

    I believe I've seen classes at Cabelas that upon completion award a FL and UT ccw, and the reciprocity for those states is pretty darn good. IIRC you wouldn't even need a WA ccw, but don't hold me to that.

    Guess I'll never need to spend my cash in Oregon!

    From: http://www.handgunlaw.us/states/oregon.pdf

    Oregon does not honor any other state Permit/Licenses.
    Oregon will issue permits to people who are residents of states that border Oregon. Those states are Washington, California, Idaho and Nevada.

    You will need to get an Oregon non-res permit to carry in Oregon. However, I have heard that only one county (sheriff) issues without needing extenuating circumstances. I heard this while taking the Insights Training class for the Utah CCW. You might want to give them a call and see if they can guide you on the process. The number for Insights is (425) 827-2552.
