Just got this info from my instructor:
North Dakota as of August 1st, will now require all testers to 1) take a class in North Dakota and 2) require all testing be conducted in North Dakota. They have also tiered their permits into a two tier system.
Now whoever needs a permit from ND needs to drive there and take the class and apply for it.

| Yeah, but I think my South Dakota permit will still work there.

That two-tiered system, among other recent changes, must be why Virginia and North Dakota now have mutual recognition of each other's permits. According to North Dakota's Attorney General "Class 1" permits are now valid in Virginia. And my Virginia permit is now good in North Dakota.
I don't know if this is what's going on in North Dakota, but it reminds me of an idea: I'm one who thinks it may be a good thing for states to offer the option for residents/citizens to acquire permits that have "higher" qualifications for reciprocity purposes, or settle for "lower" qualifications for in-state carry purposes. For instance, if Virginia offered a class of permit that required live-fire demonstration, then that class of permit could be valid in, for example, Nevada. However, if I don't care to carry in Nevada, I could stick with my standard class permit.
Of course, this idea is really just a bandaid for a broken system of conflicting firearm laws. Sadly, a federal option may be the only universal (all 50 states, plus territories) solution.
