travelling out of state

[Doc8404]

According to us USCCA coverage map a person with a NY Resident permit can conceal carry in Maine, but the 2020 Traveler's Guide to Firearms Laws of The Fifty States does not show any reciprocity with the State Of New York.
The Maine Firearms CFP booklet states that "F. A handgun carried by a person to whom a valid permit to carry a concealed handgun has been issued by that person's state of residence if that person's state of residence honors a permit to carry a concealed handgun issued under this chapter; "

Since NY will not recognize a Maine Permit a NY Resident Permit holder would not a able to legally carry concealed in Maine.

It interesting that the USCCA and the Travelers Guide appear to give opposite answers!!!

Very Confusing

I would suggest a direct inquiry to Maine Licensing authority before traveling there.

USCCA and ME FCFP booklet mean NOTHING.

After reading everything I could......I have determined that you may....or may not be allowed to CC in Maine.

Seriously though, everything posted on 2 Maine government sites, you are good to go....clear as day.
There is nothing about having to be a resident like some states require.

Oh, and retaining a lawyer for this question is absurd.
If still worried, call the Maine SP and talk to the highest level person you can and be sure to get their name......lieutenant or up preferably.

exactly. I would certainly rely on post 29 info more than the others posts earlier.
