No ... not even close.
My home state has no reciprocity with any other state. A (very) few states unilaterally recognize my home state permit, but my state recognizes no others. I currently hold licenses/permits from four different states, and that allows me to carry (legally) in approximately 33 states.
I see zero downside to this proposal. It's way overdue. The notion that the states with stricter laws will somehow "force" the states with less strict laws to become more strict doesn't compute. It's probably more likely that it would go the other way, as people who live in the strict states whine to their state legislators about how unfair it is that visitors don't have to do 'X' and 'Y' and 'Z' to carry, but they (the residents) do.
Do you really think that the Pennsylvania legislature is going to require mandatory training for carry permits if they start getting letters from Chicago?
