Virginia to end reciprocity with 25 states


Recommended Posts

As I understand it (but I could very well be wrong), a reciprocity agreement falls apart if one party reneges... I would expect that, within a year's time, VA permit holders pretty much wont be able to carry into any contiguous states.  I live only 300 yds from the VA state line - and, as others have pointed out, VA is (for now) an OC w/o permit state...guess the Springer gets to see the light of day on northerly excursions.  Given the rabid anti-2A histories of Herring and McAuliffe, this will likely be but the tip of the iceberg.  While it will be difficult at present for them to eliminate permitless OC, I do expect considerable pressure from them to make OC as uncomfortable - and as unwelcome - as they can.

We must live in the same neighborhood.

Can someone explain how this statement makes any since at all?

 

Attorney General Mark R. Herring (D) said severing the out-of-state agreements can prevent people who may be dangerous or irresponsible from carrying a concealed weapon.

Ridiculous - to get a VA nonresident all you have to do is mail in an application and a copy of DD-214 or proof of attending NRA basic firearm training. Pure politics. Recommend everyone write their reps and demand VA permits not accepted in TN. Good for the goose, good for the gander.

TN will have to change the law to forbid it, can't be done with mere edict from AG, TNDOS, or even Governor.

Here's the stupid part... Open carry will still be legal there without a permit. This is political, nothing to do with safety.

 

Kind of hard to open carry in the winter, unless you want to strap a heater across your chest or something.
