Don’t Carry Without It
Do you Need a Concealed Weapon License in Florida?
Starting July 1, 2023, new legislation took effect in the state of Florida which authorizes a person to carry a concealed weapon or firearm pursuant to a valid concealed weapons license or without a concealed weapons license provided that the criteria for obtaining a license is met.
