What is state CCW license reciprocity based on - that is, on what basis do states establish reciprocity agreements?
For Minnesota it is training that meets or exceeds MN requirements. Unfortunately Minnesota training, though good, does meet the training of some states and thus MN recognizes the TX permit (training greater than ours) but TX does not recognize ours.(MN training not meeting TX standards) Lots of quirks though. Pennsylvania recognizes MN so I was a able to get a non-resident PA permit which TX does recognize.
Ok, so I get a bit confused on the issue of reciprocity sometimes. I see that you all are talking about training requirements by the states needing to be equal or better in some cases, and that you keep mentioning TX as one that requires equal or better for reciprocity. However, it appears that TX accepts the WA permit and WA has no requirement for training. Somehow this doesn't all jive. Am I the only one confused?
