Starting on Friday, July 1, hundreds of new laws will take effect for the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Among the many new laws will be two that impact Virginia concealed handgun permit holders and those engaging in private firearms transactions at Virginia gun shows, as well as many others which we've outlined here.
CONCEALED HANDGUN PERMIT:
As of July 1, 2016, Virginia will recognize all valid concealed handgun or concealed weapon permits and licenses issued by another state, so long as the following requirements are met:
1. The holder of such permit or license is at least 21 years of age
2. The permit or license holder carries a photo identification issued by a government agency of any state or by the U.S. Department of Defense or U.S. Department of State
3. The holder displays the permit or license and such identification upon demand by a law-enforcement officer
4. The permit or license holder has not previously had a Virginia concealed handgun permit revoked.

ReplyDeleteGood move Virginia!
All states should recognize other states.
Having gone through the process of obtaining a permit, it is ludicrous to not honor it from state to state.
I love VA.
ReplyDeleteNow if Maryland would follow suit, it would make it easier for me to come home LOL
