Currently impossible as most of the screwed up states are "may issue" and only to residents. Think NY, NJ, CA, MA...

In Texas, having TX, AZ, & UT will give you about as many states as you can get.
Last I checked, MA is effectively shall-issue for non-residents, as long as they have a license from their home state. The state police issue for non-residents. The problem is that a non-resident license only lasts a year, is expensive (~$200 IIRC), and you must apply in person.

With my Texas and Utah already in hand maybe I should get my Arizona so I can be a triple threat
I did. My in-laws own a cabin in Brian Head, and we fly through Las Vegas to get there. Since Nevada dropped Texas and Utah on reciprocity, I needed another license to be legal there. So I got Arizona.

The Nevada is new information, my inlaws used to live in Nevada and I could always use my Utah CCW there.

As a resident of Nevada you couldn't use a Utah CCW but as a visitor to Nevada a Uath CCW was welcomed.

No kidding, I never heard that. Oh well, my AZ permit is also a good "third backup". I will likely not renew my Florida license since it no longer adds any states.

Keep calm and carry.

I called Nevada today and they said that my Utah CCW was no longer valid. Thank you for the tip.

I just requested by email the packet to obtain my Arizona permit as well.Seems logical to have a legal means to carry if something were to happen to my TX. CWP.Will probably lock my Az.permit in my safe,and if I lose my wallet or something I can use it until my replacement comes.

There is also the possibility that a state could drop reciprocity with Texas for political reasons (Texas gov says something that state X gov doesn't like). In that case, having a back-up ready would possibly save you from not being able to carry on a trip.
