Need help with WV/ Fl Non resident permit

[mikebnk]

I am applying for a CCW in WV. I had decdided to go with the Nonres Fl lic because of better coverage and its cheaper when you consider its good for 7 years. However I recieved an email that was quoting WV law supposedly and it stated that WV would honor Fl non res only if the holder was not a WV resident. Does anyone know if this it true?

WV isn't accepted in NM and TX where I travel alot. Do I have to have a WV permit along with my Fl non res to be leagal in my home state of WV?

Under West Virginia law, West Virginia residents may not use a reciprocal state's license to carry a concealed handgun in West Virginia. W.Va. Code § 61-7-6a(a)(3).

Thanks for the link Jim, that clears it up. I had read that before and then checked the reciprocity maps but must have overlooked that "Must not be WV res..." part.

Thanks again, looks like I will be appying for two CCW permits.
