If a non-resident of Virginia has a Concealed Handgun Permit issued from another state, is it recognized in Virginia?

  1. Yes, without any conditions

  2. No, under all circumstances

  3. Yes, if the other state has a reciprocity agreement with Virginia

  4. Only if they are active duty military

The correct answer is: Yes, if the other state has a reciprocity agreement with Virginia

Virginia recognizes concealed handgun permits issued by other states as long as there is a reciprocity agreement in place. This means that if the other state has an agreement with Virginia regarding the recognition of each other's permits, then the non-resident's permit will be valid in Virginia. It is crucial to check for reciprocity agreements between states before assuming that a permit will be recognized across state lines. Therefore, option C is the correct answer as it aligns with the reciprocity requirements for concealed handgun permits between states.
