Adding additional restrictions for federal reciprocity would be one way to get anti-gun support, but on the other hand it would also alienate the pro gun support, so a substantially *******ized bill is unlikely to pass.
In addition, even if it did, it would not change the current state to state reciprocity agreements or the current state level requirements. If it raised the bar, states would still not have to change their permits to meet the federal standards.
The same thing is currently in play at the state level. SD for example has a "Basic" permit, as well as an "Enhanced" permit with increased requirements that potentially make it more acceptable to other states for reciprocity purposes. The applicant can still choose one or the other.
