I grew up in NH and have a Non-OC question re: out-of-State reciprocity CC...

[Northerner]

Hey everyone. Short and sweet; I grew up in NH and left for about a dozen other States over the last 20 years. Currently in NC which is Open Carry friendly (love it), but I do CC in certain areas in NC (prudent). NC and NH have a reciprocity agreement and I am thinking about coming back to NH to visit and help my parents move to NC.

Not really finding a great 1, 2, 3 answer on reciprocity concealed carry in NH.

So my question;

1. Can you guys point me towards a great source for a reciprocity out-of-State concealed carry?

2. Can I conceal my loaded/chambered Glock in my car with my NC CHP (Conceal Handgun Permit)?

3. If so, do I have the duty to inform the LEO if pulled over?

I see OCing, a firearm can't be loaded or even within reach???...but you can holster upon getting out of a car - strange. Fortunately, it's not like this in NC.

Thanks in advance

2. Yes, the same as if it were an NH permit.

3. No duty to inform law (yet, hopefully never).

If NC respects our license, we respect theirs.

I believe you do not need to inform them if pulled over. I've never mentioned it, but usually they can see my pistol on my seat, or the pro-gun bumper stickers/license plates..... never been a problem....

Thanks guys. Good information and a good deal, at least on the CC side. I will certainly open carry when able.
