Last time I checked, it was:
Before traveling out of state, you should send an email to the state police to verify that the reciprocity between that state and yours is still in effect, and carry a printed copy of their response on your person while you're in that state.
See link below for map. Quite a few states.
Illinois is the only state without concealed carry legislation. Several other states have legislation, but don't issue concealed carry permits.
Technically, no. Concealed weapon permits themselves do nothing. But here's the answer you're asking about. It depends on who you ask, but yes, there is evidence that in states where handgun carry permits are issued, crime is reduced.
No. Concealed carry permits are issued by individual states, and do not transfer.
No. Nebraska does not recognize permits from any othe states. This has changed since I first posted it. Nebraska now recognizes permits from several states. Check handgunlaw.us for more information.
What do you want to know about the concealed carry law in PA? You can carry a concealed weapon only if you have a permit issued from the county you live in. Also, other states reciprocate with PA in carrying a concealed weapon. I don't know all of the states, but there are quite a few. If you have any other questions about carrying in PA, e-mail me at GunMan760@aol.com, and I will find out what I can.
I'm assuming you mean if you carry a weapon does it have to be concealed. It depends on where you are. For instance, the state of Tennessee does not issue a "concealed" permit, but a handgun carry permit and there is no specific requirement to conceal the gun by law. However, many states do require the weapon to be concealed. Check handgunlaw.us for more information.

Not a good idea. First, you have to ensure the firearm is legal in California - major difference in state firearms laws between AZ and CA. Second, you need to keep it locked away and unloaded in California, as they do not reciprocate concealed carry permits.
Yes. The state of Tennessee recognizes handgun permits from any state.
