In particular, Nevada, Reno, and Las Vegas are popular vacation destinations, so this is sure to affect many concealed carriers in Florida.

Reciprocity and gun laws change more than we may think. It is always essential to know the laws of the states you plan on visiting. Here is a fantastic resource that you can use to determine any state’s firearm laws, and much, much more. Our App called Concealed Carry Gun Tools provides legal information for every state and DC.

  1. Oh snap! I visited Vegas from July 31-Aug 4 this year and carried. I even claimed the firearm in my checked baggage! I checked for reciprocity before I left and all was good. Thankfully I wasn’t stopped while there.

  2. Checking both the Florida and Nevada websites. It looks like this is changed to having reciprocity again.

    1. Scott Kappas (Travelers guide to the firearm laws of the fifty states) and Las Vegas law say no. NRA-ILA, Nevada Dept of Public safety (rccd.nv.gov) say yes. If the government website has it wrong what do you do?! Cant get anything but run around voice mail out there.

  3. Good afternoon, David!

    Please provide the where it looks like having the Florida-Nevada CCW reciprocities back in action. Thank you so much!

  4. Nevada IS still recognizing Florida’s conceal handgun permit to carry a gun in Nevada. They’re just not recognizing it to legally carry a swirchblade..

  5. For a blue state as Nevada is? Former Floridian here. We open carry all over. So F Florida even it’s a Red State. You can’t open carry. Everyone open Carry’s here. No problems. And your Governor is turning soon to be a Rhino.
