The second is that Florida has a reciprocal arrangement with 38 other states that allows permit holders to carry in those states. That will only apply if you have a permit.
I just wonder how long Florida will keep the concealed carry permit system in place, if you don't need a permit in Florida. It seems like an unnecessary expense.
