I had read one time that they don't recognize Texas because you can get a Texas CHL at age 18 if you're active military, and Nevada requires 21.

Utah and Florida permits no longer recognized in Nevada

Just received this as an NRA-ILA alert. Nevada was the one reason I was considering either Utah or FL permit.
Effective, July 1, Nevada will no longer recognize Right-to-Carry permits from Utah orFlorida. They have, however, added Ohio and West Virginia as recognized states.

Each May, the Nevada Department of Public Safety conducts an audit of states and their Right-to-Carry laws for the purpose of determining which states it will recognize.

The Nevada DPS dropped Utah because it does not have a live fire requirement, which is a part of Nevada's training requirements. When the Nevada DPS first began its state by state audit of Right-to-Carry laws in 2007, DPS admitted to NRA representatives that they overlooked the live fire training requirement. After further review, they determined that Utah wasn't similar enough to keep it on the list of recognized states.

Florida will no longer be recognized because its permits are now valid for seven years instead of five.

The Nevada DPS and the Nevada Sheriffs and Chiefs will be hosting their annual Right-to-Carry forum in Carson City in August with a teleconference feed to Las Vegas. We encourage all members to attend this informational meeting. Details will be forthcoming.
