Important considerations for drafting concealed carry legislation
I hate beating a dead horse but what other states will recognize an in state permit from a state that doesn't require training and/or fingerprinting?
Most.
The only state that expressly requires fingerprinting as a condition of reciprocity is Washington. Every other state that has a reciprocity law will tolerate name-based background checks.
There are several states that condition reciprocity on training requirements, and these requirements vary by state: Delaware, Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Ohio* (appears, in practice, to deny reciprocity to states that don't have a training requirement but has apparently made an exception for Washington), and South Carolina. While even a basic firearms safety course will qualify in most of these states, Kansas, Nevada, and (recently) New Mexico interpret their laws to require the training course to include a specific live fire shooting exercise (e.g., Utah, which has a classroom-only training requirement but does not require live fire, has reciprocity with Delaware, Minnesota, Nebraska, and Ohio, but has been expressly rejected by Kansas, Nevada, and New Mexico--the latter 2 having once had reciprocity with Utah but subsequently withdrew).
There are a few other things that I would encourage you to consider.
Nevada, Virginia, and West Virginia, by statute, and Minnesota, by interpretation of their statute, require a state to have a centralized, computer database of all permits/ licenses for verification by law-enforcement officers 24/7. Most states with modern "shall issue" laws (adopted after Florida's 1987 "shall issue" law began the modern concealed carry movement) have adopted compliant laws.
Minnesota has a 3-year disqualification following any conviction for assault, battery, or other violent misdemeanor; any drug-related offense; and violating a domestic violence protective order. Other states must have these disqualifications (again, they need only be for 3 years) as a condition of recognition in Minnesota. Again, most states with modern "shall issue" laws have adopted similar disqualifications.
Most states either unilaterally honor all other states' licenses/permits (e.g., Iowa (eff. 1/1/11), South Dakota, Missouri, Kentucky, Indiana, and Michigan, among others) or have a reciprocity statute that honors all other states' licenses/permits on the sole condition the other state reciprocate (e.g., North Dakota). The more liberal your standard for reciprocity is (constitutional carry would be best, followed by a "shall issue" law that unilaterally honors all other states' licenses/permits), the more successful you will be in getting other states to honor your (hopefully optional) license/permit.
Regardless of the form of your reciprocity law, you need to provide specific statutory authority for a state official (e.g., the Attorney General) to enter into formal, written reciprocity agreements with other states as necessary to secure recognition of your (hopefully optional) licenses/permits in those states and require that official to periodically contact the Attorney General or other appropriate state official in every other state that does not honor your licenses until that state agrees to do so. Ohio and West Virginia require formal, written reciprocity agreements; all other states with some form of reciprocity law have some legal mechanism for the establishment of reciprocity via less formal processes. Iowa omitted from their new law statutory authority for formal, written agreements and will be unable to have their permits honored in Ohio and West Virginia without additional legislation. Furthermore, due to changes in other state's laws, there's usually at least one state each year that adopts a new or improved reciprocity law and which may need to be contacted by your AG or other responsible state agency to secure recognition of your licenses.
Several states--either by statute (Washington) or their interpretation of their reciprocity law (Kansas, Nevada, Ohio)--do not honor licenses of states that issue licenses to anyone under 21 years old (Kansas and Ohio have established reciprocity with North Dakota for North Dakota Class 1 licenses only--see below). Several other states will not honor the license if the individual licensee is less than 21 years old (Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Florida, Nebraska, Virginia, and West Virginia) but do not make the other state's minimum licensing age a condition of reciprocity.
Currently, there are
16 states in which an individual licensed to carry concealed weapons is not required to undergo the NICS background check for purchasing or receiving a firearm from an FFL because 18 U.S.C. § 922(t)(3)(A) and 27 C.F.R. § 478.102(d)(1) provide an exemption for licensed individuals if the laws of the state in which the license was issued contain adequate background check procedures to verify the licensee's eligibility to lawfully possess firearms. The key to meeting this requirement is to have specific statutory language requiring a NICS check fo all new and renewal license applicants and, in the case of aliens, a federal Immigration Alien Query.
Last year, North Dakota became the first state to establish a 2-tier licensing system in an effort to expand their reciprocity with other states while not subjecting current licensees (or those who generally stay close to home and aren't concerned primarily with more reciprocity) to greater licensing requirements. They have had enough success that I believe other states may want to consider creating their own multi-tier licensing sysme involving different classes of license based on the licensee's age (18-20 years old or 21 or over), level of training, and whether a fingerprint-based background check is required.
Based upon my research of other states' reciprocity requirements, I have just finished drafting a bill for West Virginia that would create 5 different classes of licenses. This bill would reduce the minimum licensing age from 21 to 18 for classes 4 and 5, require a higher level of training for classes 1, 2, and 4, and require one-time fingerprinting (as well as the higher level of training and a 21-year-old minimum age) for Class 1. This bill would also qualify all 5 licenses classes for the federal firearm purchase background check exemption.
