And what of active duty nonresidents?
I have a break in service, so I do have a DD214.

Lol, could have used this info about 2 years ago! Good stuff!

Yeah, I would be bitching too.....if my work didnt cough up the dough for the class and the fingerprint processing.

I just got mine, but I used my NRA instructor card....

I asked them a while ago in an NRA instructor teaching NRA material was good enough.....well, after more than one email I got a definate 'maybe' and am still not sure, but I think it will... Good 'ol FLA!

DID YOU KNOW?...................
An american veteran with honorable discharge is eligible for a Florida nonresident CCW permit without taking any classes?
Charge is $117.00 American. and FBI print check.
More to follow..........See Packing.org

Dont forget to tell how many states its good in. Thats the best part. 25+ states have reciprocity with Florida.

:biglaugh:

Reciprocity

Look careful on the receprocity or recognition. Michigan has numerous receprocities but will recognize any license to carry if the person is a resident of that state. No none resident state licenses are accepted.

Yes, this is true. I used my DD214, after I got out of the Marines, to get my license. At least Fla is smart enough to know that if you served in the military, you had proper firearms training.

As for active duty non-resident, I'm not sure. But if you have a DD214 from prior service, I'd say use it, it should work.

 

[SwampBuggy]

Been that way for a long time. Used my DD214 to get my resident CCW a few years back.

I just love my home state

Thanks, Trigger!

Nice to know a 214 is worth something. Did speed up getting the last Garand I got also from the CMP too.
