Did you know that here in Florida that any veteran with a DD214 can get a concealed carry permit for only the application fee and fingerprint fee without any gun range training or practice or proficiency test? The last time most of the veterans in The Villages fired a gun under stressful situations was anywhere from 20-40 YEARS ago.
I did not know that about here in Florida about veterans. When I was still active duty and processing my retirement papers for whatever reasons they checked to make sure my qualifications were valid for a year on my retirement date. Made no sense to me but I enjoyed any visit to the range.
