No, such gun laws and permits do not transfer state to state. They may not even transfer county to county or city to city within a state.

Certain Federal law enforcement personnel can carry concealed weapons anywhere as part of their jobs however.

As said below, the regulation of concealed weapons is a matter of State law, not Federal. The exception is any qualified law enforcement officer (not just Federal) may carry a firearm at any place in the US. This extends to retired law enforcement officers that meet certain criteria. This is spelled out in The Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (LEOSA), enacted in 2004.
