How does Virginia handle concealed carry permits from other states?

  1. Virginia does not recognize permits from other states

  2. Virginia recognizes permits from all states

  3. Virginia recognizes permits from states that have reciprocity agreements

  4. Virginia allows individuals to carry without a permit from any state

The correct answer is: Virginia recognizes permits from states that have reciprocity agreements

Virginia recognizes permits from states that have reciprocity agreements because Virginia has established reciprocity with certain states based on their similar requirements and regulations for concealed carry permits. This agreement allows individuals with out-of-state permits from specific states to legally carry concealed handguns in Virginia. This is why option C is the correct answer. On the other hand, option A is incorrect because Virginia does recognize permits from some other states, and option B is incorrect because Virginia does not recognize permits from all states. Option D is also incorrect because Virginia requires a permit to legally carry a concealed handgun within the state, even for individuals from other states with reciprocity agreements.
