While you're checking permits

Your collection needs a record too

A carry permit gets you through a stop. It doesn't get you through an insurance claim, a theft report, or proving what a safe held after a fire. CaliberBase Vault keeps a real, encrypted inventory — values, serials, photos, safe assignments — that only you can open.

Track the same permits shown above with renewal reminders, right alongside the collection they're meant to protect.

Insurance-ready records
Serials, values, and photos kept together — exactly what a claim or a police report asks for.
Permits with reminders
Renewal dates tracked per state, alongside the reciprocity picture above.
Zero-knowledge, always
Encrypted on your device with a key we never see — same design as the rest of the vault.

"Via" names the permit(s) this appears to work through. A caveat, when shown, calls out a resident-only rule, a permit-class limit, or another condition worth reading before you rely on it. None of this replaces reading the official source it links to.

This is information, not legal advice.

Carry law is set by each state and can change abruptly — sometimes mid-year, sometimes by a single court ruling. Always confirm with the destination state's own official source (linked beside every state above) before you travel, and don't rely on this page, or any single source, as the final word.

Dataset last checked September 2026. Every state above also carries its own confirmation date — this is periodic, manual, official-source verification, the same posture CaliberBase Vault takes with all of its state resource links, never a real-time or automatic feed. States marked as partially verified or unverified are flagged rather than guessed. See what's actually changed, by month →
