I'm going on a quick trip to Denver, I thought I would see if my Nebraska or Utah CCW permit is valid in Colorado ???

Any body know ??

FLUFF

Blkcat:
Nope - The Nebraska permit is not valid in Colorado and the Utah permit is valid only if you are a resident of Utah.  See http://www.handgunlaw.us/ for info on reciprocity nation-wide.

Dan W:
 NOT YET, but you can conceal  a loaded handgun in your vehicle or on your person in your vehicle in Colorado and open carry is legal. No loaded long guns allowed though.

I am hoping that Nebraska will accept the training requirements that Colorado CCW permits demand as stringent enough to start reciprocity with them. The Colorado rule is they will honor any state that honors their permit, but you must be a resident of the state that issued your permit

 Check out CO's version of the NFOA for lots of good info  http://www.rmgo.org/ccwguide/  and   http://www.rmgo.org/faq/
