Are You Carrying Concealed in Florida?

Florida’s constitutional concealed carry law went into effect on July 1, and contrary to predictions by anti-gun activists, the world has not ended. Justin Matthews of Fox 13 Tampa Bay reported shortly before the day the law went into effect:

On July 1, 2023, Floridians will be able to carry a concealed firearm without having to get a permit.

“Firearms are very dangerous, and the consequence of using a firearm in an inappropriate way, like in self-defense, you could kill yourself, kill a family member, you could spend the rest of your life in prison,” said Ryan Thomas, the co-founder of Warrior Cloud, a software that helps firearms instructors train students.

He’s a firearm instructor himself and says a lot of his students take his classes ahead of receiving a concealed carry permit, so they know exactly how to use the weapon, and know what the laws are.

“For some reason, some gun owners believe they’re just going to buy a gun at a gun store, they’re going to walk into a range and just figure it out on their own,” Thomas shared.

He said people need the proper training to possess and handle a gun.
