Got my Florida CCW

Featured Replies

Got the letter in the mail today and just had to share my news, 29 days from mailbox to mailbox not bad at all! ^_^

Got mine in the mail as well today !!!!!!!!!!

 

40 days mailbox to mailbox

Funny how other states seem to grasp the notion of getting s*** done, but here in our home state it takes months to get any type of permit. :rolleyes:

Yes but is yours signed by Charles Bronson?

So it takes Florida a month +/- a week to get a CCW license to you, yet it takes NJ 1-18 months for a FID/P2P?

 

I swear every time I read a thread on this site I want to move more and more.

Not always, When I got mine IIRC it was just under a month, and some who put theirs in at the end of December 2010 got them back in less than 2 weeks..

 

Makes ya feel good about how we do things in the PR of NJ don't it.. :facepalm:

John, congrats. I am in Bergen County too, and considering doing this as well. Where and what requisite gun safety course did you take?

Hunters Ed course, or the NRA basic pistol IIRC..

Mine was a 2 week turnaround.

Hunters Ed course

 

 

It has to be rifle, correct?

I got mine in 12 days. I was down in Florida on Business. I knew the date I was going to be in Florida so I called and made an

appointment at a regional center and they did my application and electronic finger prints and sent them right out. it took about 20 min.

Shotgun hunter's ed not good enough?

 

Any training involving live fire is good, including Shotgun.

None, a copy of my DD-214 was all they needed.

To those who received their FL ccw.....where did you get your finger prints done - the local PD or did you go elsewhere?

 

 

I just have to send my check and application in. Hopefully I'll get it out this week!

I went through Gun for hire, got everything done by them, and they made sure all my T's were crossed. They also offer firearm training class if you need it. Fingerprints, notary, pics.

Thanks! Bit of a drive (NW NJ) but may just consider doing it.

The process itself is very quick if that helps at all. Took my pics., looked over paperwork, did his notary thing, fingerprinted me. Out the door in 20 mins.

Got everything done including the course with Eimer in PA.

They also do Virginia and FL together. Sometimes they also do Utah in the same day.

Used a 20 year old New York State Hunters Safety Certificate and Gun For Hire did pictures and prints and Notery at a NJSAF Meeting took 3 Weeks to the day door to door

Oh, I didn't realize you served, I thought you took a class. I am considering Guns for Hire now.

I should have been more specific. Does the Bow Hunter education count?
