I have been waiting for years. WV training requirements are not nearly what Texas requires so this may be a show stopper until either Texas or WV decides to change.
West Virginia requirements are in line with a number of states with which Texas does have reciprocity though--Florida, like West Virginia, only requires evidence of firearm safety training (like an NRA Basic Pistol certificate), and has some of the broadest recognition in the nation.
All WV has to do is get over the notion that they will only recognize resident permits, then if you have a FL, VA, or PA you could carry concealed in WV.
Actually, the requirement that it be a resident permit was only added this year. It was included in the reciprocity bill that WV passed, so I doubt it will be repealed any time soon.
