Forgive me if the answer is already published......but, why does Texas honor a Nevada Permit if Nevada doesn't honor a Texas permit?

Thanks in advance

I have not compared the requirements for both states, but it might be reasonable to assume that the requirements for a CCW permit in NV are more strict than those in TX. Here are some comments (albeit old comments) about the TX test.

A better question would be why wouldn't Texas honor a Nevada permit?

Any links would be appreciated.

Usually it's some sort of politics. Seems wierd since our two states have very simular classroom/range requirements. They like to say that's usually why NV won't recognize another states CCW's is because of some lacking in training requirements.

Texas does honor a Nevada permit.
However I don't know why Nevada doesn't honor Texas permits.

Texas does honor a Nevada permit.

But the OP asked the question, "Why does Texas honor Nevada's?"

Nevada Revised Statutes:

NRS 202.3689 Department to prepare list of states that meet certain requirements concerning permits; Department to provide copy of list to law enforcement agencies in this State; Department to make list available to public.
1. On or before July 1 of each year, the Department shall:
(a) Examine the requirements for the issuance of a permit to carry a concealed firearm in each state and determine whether the requirements of each state are substantially similar to or more stringent than the requirements set forth in NRS 202.3653 to 202.369, inclusive.
(b) Determine whether each state has an electronic database which identifies each individual who possesses a valid permit to carry a concealed firearm issued by that state and which a law enforcement officer in this State may access at all times through a national law enforcement telecommunications system.
(c) Prepare a list of states that meet the requirements of paragraphs (a) and (b). A state must not be included in the list unless the Nevada Sheriffs’ and Chiefs’ Association agrees with the Department that the state should be included in the list.
(d) Provide a copy of the list prepared pursuant to paragraph (c) to each law enforcement agency in this State.
2. The Department shall, upon request, make the list prepared pursuant to subsection 1 available to the public.
(Added to NRS by 2007, 3150)

I would be willing to bet it is one of the portions I bolded.

I thought you were saying Texas didn't honor Nevada's.
