Virginia – -(Ammoland.com)- According to the Washington Post, under Gov. Terry McAuliffe’s direction Virginia will no longer recognize select out of state concealed carry permits.

From the WP:

“Attorney General Mark R. Herring (Democrat) plans to announce Tuesday that Virginia will no longer recognize concealed carry handgun permits from 25 states that have reciprocity agreements with the commonwealth.”

“Herring said severing the out-of-state agreements can prevent people who may be dangerous or irresponsible from carrying a concealed weapon.” [Not True: nationwide Concealed Carry Holders are the most law abiding citizens in the USA.]

“To me, this is a commonsense [there is that word again] step that can help make Virginians and our law enforcement officers safer by ensuring that Virginia’s laws on who can and cannot carry a concealed handgun are applied evenly, consistently, and fairly,” he said in a statement provided to The Washington Post.”

Here are the states whose Concealed Handgun Permits Virginia will no longer recognize effective February 1 2016:

Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming.

The following permits will continue to be recognized: West Virginia, Michigan, Oklahoma, Texas and Utah.

This does not mean we will lose our ability to carry in every state in the first list, but I am certain we will lose some of them. An alert will come out whenever we learn about such a case. Either way, until February 1st 2016, nothing should change.

Update:

I just received an email from Gary Slider, who runs the handgunlaw.us website, and is thus in a position to know how Herring’s attack on CHP holders is going to affect us.

Here are the states where we won’t be able to carry using our Virginia permits after February 1st:

Delaware, Florida, Louisiana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Wyoming

For those of you who have a Utah or a Florida non-resident permit, you will be able to carry in some of those states using that permit instead of your Virginia permit.

fearer; Apparently you don’t realize that Permit Holders are the most law abiding citizens in the USA. We have gone through the background checks, local police checks, and have submitted our fingerprints to the Feds..etc. While using my Constitutional Rights I am extra careful whether it be speeding, jay-walking, drinking/driving or any other infractions. An armed society is a polite society.! You should expand your information beyond the liberal MSM..Convicted criminals are being released by obummer and gun crime convictions are way down under this administration..Pay attention fearer because obummer is releasing TERRORISTS..

PARDON, but can someone REASONABLY explain WHY Virginians should want MORE CONVICTED CRIMINALS to have guns in Virginia?

Time for Every State that was on the reciprocity list to BAN firearms carried by his security. AND, refuse to provide armed security by instate personal. Let him go “Naked” into the public.

I came out of Florida with a permit, it was reciprocal. Now I live in Virginia I am forced to get a VA permit that is not good anywhere else. Thank God I still have my FL Permit when I travel. VA is getting as bad as MD and MA…Morons

I can certainly live without going to or through Virginia.

It is only northern virginia with all of the NY and NJ transplants and all of the stupid federal employees who commute into DC who vote for these idiots. The rest of the state, aside from a few city’s such as south boston, Richmond, Roanoke city, and Hampton roads, is a solid red in every election. Unfortunately NoVA is overpopulated with these libtards (haha that word is not autocorrecting and is not flagged as misspelled or incorrect) and they overpower the entire rest of the state.

The ONLY way to fix this is with National Reciprocity.

McAuliffe is and always has been a left wing POS. What do you expect from a socialist? Good job Virginia voters. Really, can’t you do any better than this ahole?
