If you’re going to own a firearm you need to acquire a Florida concealed weapons permit. You will face criminal charges (and as they say: take the ride but beat the rap) if you do not own a firearm license. It is a third-degree felony to have a firearm rarely accessible without a concealed weapons permit. There is no such thing as a three-step or other defenses. The measure is “readily accessible.”
If you have been arrested and criminally charged for a firearm offense, you need to contact a Florida criminal defense attorney that can help you.
