Not NJ gun law but figured someone on here would know. Question is on FL ccw training requirement. Does anyone know if my NJ Shotgun hunting education course meets the FL requirement as per item #1 below? If so, do I just include a copy of my course completion card and a copy of my hunting license?

 

Thx in advance.

 

 

 

From FL Dept of Ag website:

I posted in the forum above this that I had trouble with mine. Florida sent me a letter stating the training certificate must include the instructor's name and #. The hunter ed card wasn't sufficient, and neither was my SAFS certificate from last year, which should have met #5.

 

Another member mentioned that you can get a replacement hunter ed certificate that has a name and #, so I emailed NJ and am waiting for a response.

Just saw your thread. THANKS for the heads up! No need to post anything further in this thread, everything I was wondering was covered in yours.
