Firearms reciprocity agreement now complete

HARRISBURG – Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Sunday, along with Virginia’s Attorney General Jason Miyares, announced the finalization of a reciprocity agreement with the Commonwealth of Virginia allowing holders of Licenses to Carry Firearms to do so in both states. 

Under the agreement, a license holder from Pennsylvania may carry a firearm concealed on their person or in a vehicle in Virginia, and a license holder from Virginia may carry a firearm concealed on their person or in a vehicle in Pennsylvania, said state Rep. Rich Irvin (R-Franklin/Huntingdon). 

This agreement is only applicable to the concealed carry of handguns and requires the following of permit holders: 
• Be at least 21 years of age. 
• Carry photo identification. 
• Present their concealed carry permit when requested by law enforcement. 
• Not have a concealed carry permit previously revoked.
