Tuesday, May 19, 2009
On May 8, Governor Joe Manchin, III (D) signed House Bill 3314 into law. This important bill makes significant changes to the concealed carry statutes in West Virginia.
The new law regarding reciprocity will allow more states to enter into reciprocity agreements with West Virginia and vice versa. HB 3314 will also remove a permit holder’s social security number from their permit and require the process of reissuing permits to fall under the same 45-day deadline as issuing permits. Lastly, out of state non-resident permits will now be recognized as valid in West Virginia.
Please contact the Governor’s office and thank him for signing this important pro-gun legislation. Also, please contact your legislators and thank them for all their hard work this session. You can find your legislator’s contact information here. To contact Governor Manchin, please call toll-free at 1-(800) 438-2731 or email him at Governor@WVGov.org.
WV now recognizes any permit.
