According to a friend of mine, it's next to impossible to get one of those out of state permits. He wanted to get one for a hunting trip so that he could carry his revolver. They told him he wouldn't have the permit in hand until after his trip was over and that was if he was approved. To add to that, according to a story on Ammoland.com from 2014, the only states that qualified for out of state permits are Hawaii, New Mexico, South Carolina, and Virginia, but that may have changed since then. The law that allows for these permits states:
Quote:The Department shall by rule allow for non-resident license applications from any state or territory of the United States with laws related to firearm ownership, possession, and carrying, that are substantially similar to the requirements to obtain a license under this Act.
At the time the story was posted, the above states were the only ones that met the "substantially similar" qualification.
