Out-of-state carry in Omaha

<< < (2/3) > >>

Supersparky:
I have a friend that is a South Dakota resident with a South Dakota CCW and a Utah CCW.  Is he good to carry in Nebraska on the Utah CCW, since Nebraska doesn't recognize the South Dakota permit?

I'm not an attorney, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn last week.  From the quoted regulation that Chris Z provided above, I would say yes he could.  You can also look at this website...

...and build a License Map for Utah.  If you look around, you will see that some states (possibly Colorado) require you to be resident of the issuing state before they will recognize your permit.  handgunlaw.us states...

Definitely not to argue, and I hope you are right, but is this possibly one of those curve balls where Nebraska honors the Utah permit, but you have to be a resident of Utah or a state that Nebraska honors? I know this is being picky, but I have seen it somewhere, possibly another state and not Nebraska like you posted.

Supersparky:
I haven't seen anywhere where NE requires you to be a resident of the state.  I just told him to try and not get stopped in Omaha, just in case he runs into someone that doesn't understand the law.

--- Quote ---Recognition of Concealed Handgun Permits

Permits Issued By Other States Which Are Recognized By Nebraska

On August 30, 2009, Nebraska began recognizing CCW permits issued by those states which the Nebraska Attorney General has determined have standards equal to or greater than Nebraska. This recognition extends ONLY to persons who are NOT residents of Nebraska. This change in the law allows non-resident permit holders from the approved states to carry handguns concealed in Nebraska the same as if they held a Nebraska permit. See our regulations on this web site for restrictions on places that a concealed weapon can be carried.

Approved states

The following states have standards equal to or greater than the standards contained in Nebraska’s statute:

Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota (class one permit), Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wyoming and the District of Columbia.

The following states have standards equal to or greater than the standards contained in Nebraska’s statute but only to the extent the permit holder in that state is twenty-one (21) years of age or older:

California, Iowa, Maine, Montana, North Dakota (class 2 permit) and Texas.

The state of Vermont does allow the carrying of concealed firearms within its borders, but it does not require a permit to do so. As a result there is no permit to recognize.

Unapproved states

The following states will not be recognized at this time because the Attorney General has determined that they do not have standards that are equal to or greater than the standards contained in Nebraska’s statute:

Alabama, Delaware, Georgia, Indiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania, South Dakota and Washington
