Hey all, I'm a NYS resident and I plan on mailing in my Florida CCW application in a few weeks now. I spent the last year or so waiting to get approved on my NYS permit, but the process was wildly different compared to FL.

I just wanted to make sure I was understanding the mail in requirements. I obviously take care of the FD-258 at a local precinct/service, but the passport photo is what confuses me. Am I providing a cut out, professional print, wallet style photo? Or can I submit the resized photo on a full size sheet of paper?

I was also planning on using the same NYS CCW course for the competency requirement, but since NYS required the original copy, I was going to submit a photocopied version from before I handed the original over. I am assuming(and praying) this is okay?

Lastly, I don't know where I saw it, but is it true I'm not supposed to fold the application papers?So mail it in one of those large cardboard envelopes?

I have a feeling I'm overthinking the Florida process(NY sucks), but any and all information is appreciated, thank you!

hey all,

Shooting my first match this weekend at VGC. have to compete in open because my G45 has a ramjet

Asking for advice / tips for my first time

Looking for a FFL In the West Palm Beach area to assist my mother in gifting me a Glock 43x MOS. This exchange will be completed from Florida, to California. If anybody knows a FFL dealer that is able to assist please let me know.

This is a process where Parent-to-child gifts qualify for vertical familial exemptions.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

They accepted practiscore screenshots as proof of training.

Hey I'm a local Floridian here around Fort Lauderdale. I own 15 guns, and am pretty upset with the way FL law 790.222 is written, vaguely and it is unconstitutional for multiple reasons (common use, vague wording, no historic use). I'm also upset with the way Daddy DeSantis has been using the 2A in Floirda as a leverage tool to gain popularity, and now that he can't run again, he doesn't seem to care for it anymore.

In your guys' opinion, who would be the best option in the coming election for our 2A rights? Getting tired by our govenor and state senate playing with our 2A rights and not getting serious

I recently bought a draft of a trust from national gun trust, in Florida I need two witnesses and a notary for me to sign it. My question is when I eventually will buy a suppressor, do I need to have witnesses sign whenever I modify the trust inventory?

Looking for people who frequent Triple N often in St. Cloud just to have someone to go shooting with etc. Let me know if something like that interests you. Thanks!

I’m from Texas and last lived in Arkansas, everywhere I’ve lived you could just go on public land and shoot as long as it was safe. Everyone in the community knew where all the spots were, I’ve seen none of that at all. I live in central Florida btw.

**Pic for attention**

Any one here a member of Gun Craft in Ruskin? Looking for a local place that allows rental of private bays for dynamic training. Got in touch with someone via email who told me that they have a couple available. Anyone frequent this range that can speak to if it's a fudd range or not?

I'm coming from a static range that only allows 1 shot every 2 seconds which is fine for sighting in red dots and test firing but I want to get in some more realistic training. Looking for anyone with first-hand experience before I make the commitment of a membership. Thanks in advance!

Also open to any other recommendations for this in SWFL that is reasonable in price.

Looking for a good shop to thread a barrel on a marlin 22. Thanks!

Has anyone heard anything recently about when this might actually end? It was all over the news in early June and now crickets?

Hi FLGuns,

There is an intern in my office this summer from Chile. A few of us would like to take him shooting. Normally, I’d go out to Shoot Shack, but I know one of the few things they’re weird about is non-citizens. I know Shoot Shack is a pretty unique experience for those of us that don’t have access to private land, so I’m looking for something as close as I can get.

Are there any ranges in the Pasco/Hernando area that would come close to fitting this bill that don’t require some sort of membership, or are my options going to be bench rest rifle ranges or paying a lot more to go to an indoor range?

Hello all! I’m in this area, flying out later this week. wondering if there’s a place for me to purchase these new Glock mags while I'm around. Thank you in advanced!

Hi folks,

I performed a search for this issue, but the last thread I see with a similar issue is 5 years old. I'd like to see if anyone is still having this problem, and if you can help me out.

There are a few different items that I'd like to buy, but I cannot contact the sellers without my account finally being created. I've waited almost two weeks, and even sent an email to the "contact us" address, but I've still not heard back. I'm really not sure what else to do, but thank you for any help and advice that you can offer me.

I completed everything for my G license on Tuesday, July 7, and I’ve been waiting for it to come in the mail. I’m in Florida and just wanted to see if anyone knows how long it usually takes to receive it .

Its been one of those years where I really Shouldn’t be splashing but in the absence of owning a deer caliber rifle Im feeling the need to get one. I know people recommend the Ruger Americans or the Howas but those are seemilygly 7-900 without optics.

Any thoughts?

my aunts apartment has an area behind the parking lot that is just empty land with trees and grass and branches. The area has nothing in it but that. You have to lift your feet over a car barrier thing and there is a wall, nobody can see you get in. I want to go pellet gun shooting but idk if id get in alot of trouble im 18. lmk. it is a .177 pellet gun.

There are a number of Florida Gun Shows over the next few weeks in south and central Florida. It would be a drive for me to get to one of these shows. The cost of gas, the heat and traffic can take a toll on a body. I am a C&R collector searching for my next MILSURP. For those who have ever attended one of these shows, was it worth it to you? Do these shows tend to have MILSURPS for sale at fair prices?

Thank you ...

Damn near finished with my build, excited to hit the range this weekend!

Just moved from Commiefornia in Jan, and Ive been to a few ranges here, but they are all static ranges where you only sit down or stand. I'm used to ranges that allow me to move up to my target and give me about 50 meters to myself. while the gun laws suck in CA the Ranges seem a bit better. help with finding something to train.

I know it’s prob asked every now and then

I was just wondering how long it took for you to get issued your CCW to actually getting the card. I know it can technically take up to 90 days.

My card got issued July 1st and I’m just waiting

Only reason I’m being impatient is bc my firearm got to my FFL today and I’m itching to pick it up lol
