johnott 5 Posted October 20, 2011 I've read various information concerning whether Florida will accept a DD214 in lieu of a Firearms Training or Hunters safety course. Some have said that it must list your firearms training on your DD214. Contacted Florida Bureau of License Issuance via email with the following question: Do you accept all DD214s with an HONORABLE discharge? My DD214 is from 1981 and doesn't specifically list any firearms training that I had. Answer: Your DD214 is acceptable. (As of today 10/20/2011 they accept all Honorable discharge papers ie. DD214's to fulfill the firearms safety requirement.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bbk 188 Posted October 20, 2011 I had heard about this too, and the fact that if the DD214 doesn't list anything making the document void seemed so... backwards. DD214's list all units that we had ever been affiliated with, including Basic. On top of the required quarterly training briefs and mandatory range time, we had to pass marksmanship and safety briefs during Basic to just graduate.

Tom-NJ2AS 31 Posted October 21, 2011 exactly. Mine actually shows my PMI (Marksmanship Instructor) school dates. I use the dd-214 for everything! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matty 810 Posted October 21, 2011 DD214 is proof enough for the CMP as well Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Plinker 1 Posted October 21, 2011 That's good news! Have to dig mine out though...see what it says... So how many states is a Florida ccw good for? Also, what's a CMP? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a NJ resident, a FL permit will cover you in these blue states CMP = Civilian Marksmanship Program Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
