why do you need a FLA ccp--if you have a GA permit it's good in fla just like fla is good in GA

Longer than GA permit. If I'm not mistaken, it might be cheaper but I'm not sure. 5 years vs 7 years. Over time, you will benefit.

Look forward to it.
Winter is a great time to train.
While I do bring heaters for use between drills numb fingers help simulate what happens under stress or in a fight because fine motors skills degrade bigtime & the importance of relying on gross motor skills becomes much more evident.
Those who can do well in those conditions should breeze through easier ones.

Yeah maybe if I'm the only person there, we could do a short 4 hour course with maybe couple hours for live firing session. FL doesn't require a certain hour, but they do require live safety handling.

Florida covers a few states ga doesn't. Since I travel occasionally for work and it isn't usually planned I'd like to get as much coverage as I can.

there you go--that makes sense --need all the coverage you can get

The difference between FL and GA is length of issue and more reciprocity in like 7 more states.

Any NRA course is accepted by FL, you fill out the paperwork, fingerprints and send them a copy of the NRA course certificate and for $117, you have the FL non-resident course.

Just remember, SC is still holding out on other states CCW/GFL's so dont carry there concealed.

2 things.......if you were in the military, your military training will suffice for Fla firearm training.....also some (not sure how many) of the states that do not recognize Ga permits but do recognize Fla permits only recognize Fla RESIDENT permits.
