      Open carry is illegal in Florida… Well unless they are on the way to a gun range/hunting spot, which they won’t be.

      You can get 10 years prison in Florida for showing someone you have a gun in your holster and it being perceived as a threat in Florida.

      For a long time a concealed carry permit from Florida was accepted in more states than any other permit because once upon a time they had strict rules to ensure people were safe. And then Desantis came in and tried to fuck everything up
