But remember;Digging up this old thread because I have a question about NH ID cards and pistol permits, as I'm buying a vacation property in NH.
ID Cards: The application requires you to disclose if you have an out of state driver's license. Will this prevent me from getting the ID? Looking for actual experiences - I know the law does not require surrender of an out of state DL (scroll up in this thread for details), but that doesn't mean the bureaucrats interpret the law correctly in practice.
Pistol Permit: The permit application asks for a DL #. I would be applying for a resident permit. Would an MA DL be a red flag? Could I just leave it blank?
1. you don't need a P&R in NH, it get's you some reciprocity and carry on a rec vehicle but otherwise unnecessary (so does the non-res).
2. a NH non-res is just as easy to get, and easier to carry in your wallet.
3. should be able to buy guns/ammo with proof of residency, doesn't have to be a DL
4. NH isn't like MA, check the law, if it doesn't say an out of state DL is a disqualifier then you will get the C&R. CoP will follow the statute.
