Title 15 › CHAPTER 85 — ARMORED CAR INDUSTRY RECIPROCITY › § 5902
If an armored car crew member has a valid weapons license from the state where they are mainly employed, and they meet that state's other rules for crew members, they may carry the licensed weapon and work as an armored car crew member in any other state while on duty. For a state agency to count as meeting the law, it must, for a first license, check that the person got classroom and range training in the current year for each weapon and did a current-year criminal background check showing federal law would not bar them from having the weapon. For renewals, the agency must confirm ongoing training and that federal law would still allow the weapon. Licenses generally last no more than 2 years, except states with laws from before October 1, 1996, may issue up to 5 years.
