If federal legislation requires reciprocity, the feds will be setting the standards.

Didn't happen with marriage or drivers licenses. This is not a fed ccw issue law.

Actually it did happen with marriage. Ever heard of the Defense of Marriage Act of 1996? Under that legislation the federal government does not recognize "same sex marriage" and the states are permitted to not recognize "same sex marriages" that occur in other states. If it weren't for the Defense of Marriage Act, the courts might have compelled by the courts to recognize "same sex marriages" from other states.
