On 06-17-2011, AB282 was signed into law and goes into effect on 07-01-2011.
AB282 changes several aspects of NV CCW laws.
#1) AB282 changes semi-auto pistols into a category.
So, qualify with one semi-auto pistol and you can carry any semi-auto pistol.
AB282 supersedes AB143, therefore the semi-auto firearm category change goes into effect on 07-01-2011, instead of 10-01-2011.
#2) AB282 provides permit holder confidentiality.
#3) AB282 allows permit holders to legally carry in state parks.
#4) AB282 allows permit holders to meet the required qualification for NICS exemptions to firearms transfered via FFL dealer. Actual NICS exemption is pending final approval from BATFE.

Ab 282 AB 282 was signed into law this morning by Governor Sandoval. It all goes into law on July 1st. The only bills that didn't get to final vote and passage was AB231. That was the "campus carry" bill. Every other gun bill passed.
Thanks folks for clearing the AB 282 thing up for us. I started trying to follow all the assembly actions and bills, but soon lost track of exactly what was happening to each.
Correction! Actually, we already had carry concealed (with permit) in state parks.
AB-282 gives us open carry in state parks. See AB-282 http://www.leg.state.nv.us/Session/7...B/AB282_EN.pdf; Legislative Counsel's Digest says:
Existing law also allows the Administrator of the Division of State Parks of the
State Department of Conservation and Natural Resources to adopt regulations,
including, without limitation, prohibitions and restrictions on activities within parks
or recreational facilities within the jurisdiction of the Division. (NRS 407.0475)
Existing administrative regulations allow a person to carry a concealed firearm in a
state park if the person complies with existing laws concerning the carrying of
concealed weapons but prohibit a person from discharging a firearm in a state park.
(NAC 407.105) Any person who violates a regulation adopted by the Administrator
is guilty of a misdemeanor. (NRS 407.0475) While existing law prohibits the
discharge of a firearm under various circumstances, it also provides certain
defenses for violating such provisions by allowing a person to make sufficient
resistance to prevent the occurrence of certain offenses. (NRS 202.280-202.290,
193.230-193.250)
Section 5 of this bill prohibits the Administrator from adopting any regulation
concerning the possession of firearms in state parks or recreational facilities which
is more restrictive than the laws of this State relating to: (1) the possession of
firearms; and (2) engaging in lawful resistance to prevent an offense against a
person or property. Section 5 also voids any regulation which conflicts with such
laws.
