pa does not reconize ohio license but PA does NH.
If I get a NH license will PA accept it or do you have to be a resident of NH before there accepted?
Thanks Dave

I was going to say "No" (FL does have clear-cut non-resident permit reciprocity with PA) but reading the PA Attorney General's website leaves some encouragement that you might be able to.

Quote:

Note: It has come to the attention of the Office of Attorney General that there has been confusion over the applicability of Pennsylvania's reciprocal privileges with regard to the residency status of an individual who has been issued a valid license/permit. It is the position of the Office of Attorney General that recognition within Pennsylvania is based on the issuance to an individual of a valid license/permit by the reciprocal contracting state, and not on the license/permit holder's place of residence.

Why don't you just get a Pennsylvania license? It can be done through the mail with the Centre County Sheriff's office. I believe they will issue a license to you based on your Ohio license. The cost is $20 for 5 years.

I did this several years ago, so you might want to check and make sure nothing has changed.
 
thanks, this was hinsight on my part.
I have the application for Pa. and I had applier for the NH license a few weeks ago.
I did not take in account that some states required you to be a resident of that state befor you could carry in a state that was reciprocal. florida for example only reconises those states that the licenee is a resident. I think?
I did try and call the PA attorney Generals office last friday but got passed from one person to another. I will try again

Finally, got the info I needer.
I talked to the attorney general office of PA and the do reconise the Nh NON resident ccw license. so If you have a NH licenses you are legal to carry in PA.
