El Jefe

Berreta M93A - it may be bigger than most people feel comfortable with, but I love it. I used to carry the 1990 predecessor which was about the same size for a couple of years. My rational is, I'm not going to be carrying all the time, as I still feel pretty safe in ole NJ, but when I do decide to carry, I want to carry the gun I trust and am comfortable using.

That is true, but they don't know if that firearm had a brace on it or not. And since we all established that a brace is not a must then I guess your gun came without one. Unless you think the ATF will start going to companies and asking them how exactly a specific model left the factory....

@JackDaWack I also agree with your analysis that the Pistol Brace is not part of the other definition and thus it can be removed. And by this logic, if the brace is an accessory you should be able to remove it whether it was bought or built by you. And in any case, how the hell can they see how the other was originally bought? I'm sure that there is no record at your FFL of how the other was configured. I thought an "AOW" has the definition of being concealed and a smooth barrel, which will make most the others non conforming, am I wrong?

But if you have a copy on the phone and the regulations says this is OK, then you proved that you have it. Anyone knows how someone with a paper copy gets an electronic one?

Funny how your boat can be in your garage and on a trailer and still boating accidents happen. And very often mind you...

Yessir. It is a beautiful country, the people are really the nicest in Latin America.

I hear ya. I just spent a couple of weeks in Costa Rica, couldn't take the winter here anymore...

I did the process online. I went to gun's for hire for the required training, which is mandatory, and they filled all the paperwork for me. I sent it by mail and 90 days later got my permit. Easy Peasy! Beats going somewhere in person to get it done in my book.

Will do. Already ordered a Vedder holster

I just checked and now my online status change to approved Took them almost exactly the 90 days they say is allowed by FL law. Funny how the workload matches the bureaucracy...

Is it worth all the hassle when you can get a legal one online quite cheap. Theoretically the spring on that mag was designed for a specific travel length that you now changed significantly.

I wonder if this can be tweaked to comply as other? and get a shorter barrel..... It's and IWI Tavor for those unfamiliar, it is a pup built on AR and AK combined platform

Thanks. Did you apply recently? And apologies to all members of the fair sex that applied and felt slighted by my use of guys!

Does anyone here have the FL CCW? I applied around October and am still getting the massage "we have 90 days to process blah blah" how long did it took you guys to get it approved?

The AR platform is one example when the price is not always tied to quality. Most of the players buy the receivers, BCG, Barrel and almost all the other parts from a few companies, and even many parts that are branded as a specific brand name come from same large manufacturers that offer branded parts to their clients. If you look at the parts installed in the AR that you like and figure out who made them that will give you a good idea about quality...
