Question for Virginia CCWers

[marlinspike]

If I get a non-resident CCW for Virginia, does anybody know if that will have reciprocity in NC? I know the resident VA CCW does, but how about the non-resident?
Thanks,
Richard

Richard,

Check www.packing.org

I know, it's a good site, but it still leaves me unclear if NC has reciprocity with just VA resident permits or all VA permits. I'll read it again.

Richard...

I would just call Virginia's/North Carolina's Dept of Justice - Firearms Division and ask them with regard to clarifying their CCW reciprocity laws for you, and then obtain pertinent copies 'in writing'...just to CYA.

Great Advice....

I put an e-mail in to them since I don't really have the time to deal with calling them during their hours.

In the meantime, what do you guys think of the HK USP tactical .45? I don't care for 1911's (I thought I did, and was willing to spend good money on something like an STI targetmaster), but then when I held them I realized I just don't like a 1911 design. The USP tactical is a gun that I like when I hold it, but I'm wondering how much I'll like it when I shoot it.

Well, I just noticed that in the text part where it tells you about reciprocity, packing.org says non-resident VA permit has reciprocity in NC. Now I just have to wait 6 months to be 21.

I prefer the USP Compact, myself:

I went to check one out...HK pistols are crap. I don't know what the hell I was thinking...those 1911's are wonders in the hand and the HK is the awful one...one 1911 was just...well see next post.

STI Trojan 5.0 in .45acp was the decision in case anybody cares. See you at the NRA HQ range.
