Applied during COVID (2020), had to call in and provide more information. Aight. Waited on hold for hours and hours, over and over again, gave up. In the meantime, Florida said, “You legal to own? You good to conceal carry.” Aight.
Got a license in the mail today. Very legit looking. Holographic pic under/on-top of the state seal, top quality, etc. My pic looks like Rob Zombie, not sure where it’s from, but it’s clearly me.
The hell just happened?!
EDIT: Compared my pic to my DL, not even close. Maybe I sent a selfie 4-years ago? Maybe, can’t remember?
This guy is named and is legit: https://www.fdacs.gov/About-Us/Meet-Commissioner-Simpson
If I can conceal carry as-is, WTF does this do for me? State reciprocity? Make me more legit if I have to fuck with cops? Asking the next pig I see.
Well, define “fuck with” lol, but basically yeah that’s it. Some constitutional carry states still offer permits even when they aren’t required, for reciprocity mainly and for bonus “it looks good in court” purposes if ever forced to defend self. Some states will also let you carry in more locations that are still banned for constitutional carriers, but that’s sorta rare.
Better to contact a lawyer in your state and ask than a cop, cops aren’t even actually required to know the laws in your area. Even calling a local gun store and asking would be better than asking the cops tbh.
Great idea! I have Legal Shield so I can call a Florida lawyer and get a free opinion.
In any case, it’s going in my wallet from now on, because why not.
