AZ Resident AZ Permit Honored

Arizona Concealed Weapons Permit allows for concealed carry in 38 states (as an Arizona resident). For non-Arizona residents, it is 31 states as seven states will only recognize a permit from the state from which you are a resident. Although your permit is recognized in other states, you are still required to follow the concealed carry laws of that particular state, which could be different than Arizona.
