Didn't someone just do this a few days ago?
Too soon?
I don't think Utah non-res CCW permit is valid in FL. Also, if you drive and have Utah non-res permit, once you get out of New England, you're in good shape except for South Carolina as a non-resident, you can certainly transport but not CC.
Wellll, to be technical, NJ isn't part of New England, so he would have to store according to FOPA going through NJ (and NY).

I may be wrong, I'm thinking back about 2 yrs to a friend who retired and moved to FLA, but during his process and getting a FLA permit I believe they told him that a person must reside in the state at least part time to get a FLA permit (length of time I don't remember), but if I recall he also needed to get a FLA drivers Lic first (memory is shaky on this, but may at least guide you in the right direction for research).

And...then hope for the best.
I'm the OP.....this thread isn't a "parody" although the timing does suck. The ft. Lauderdale incident did get me wondering how to get my weapon down there and how to have it legally while in Florida for 2-3 months. I think Florida has a non-resident pistol permit that you can get online and by mail.
All of that is categorically false. Who told him that pile of shit information?
Ok, understood. My memory was shaky on it to begin with so I'll take the hit for posting it. I thought I was repeating accurately what he had told us but clearly not so much.
OP, my apologies for posting bad info. Best of luck and I'll step back on this one and learn something myself.
If the instructor for my Utah/Florida class is to be believed, and he did seem to know what he was talking about. The Utah non-res is NOT good in FL. The only difference between the Utah only class and the Utah/FL class was the live-fire required for FL. FL also requires a permit in your home state where Utah does not, probably not an issue.
The other difference is that UT requires a course for a UT certified instructor (one needs to travel to UT to get that certification). FL accepts a wide variety of courses, including the NRA ones.The only difference between the Utah only class and the Utah/FL class was the live-fire required for FL
There is no difference between a FL resident and non-resident permit: same permit; same form. Only difference is the holder's address.Get the Florida non resident permit. It's easy to do via mail

No no, no worries. I'm just curious who told him. A firearm instructor? Gun store employee?
Ft. Lauderdale fallout? Delta implements new procedures for picking up checked bags with firearms.

That's actually not a bad thing at all, even for us as travelers with guns. It actually helps to ensure that someone won't accidentally (or purposefully) grab your bag off the carousel, which is problematic enough in a sea of black bags, but even more so if you have your gun in there. I'm just glad to read that it isn't some extra retarded stuff that would make bringing a gun too much of a hassle to bother.
Plus, what exactly is the guy doing the ID check really going to accomplish in the way of safety?
I love when they try to include NY in New England.Wellll, to be technical, NJ isn't part of New England, so he would have to store according to FOPA going through NJ (and NY).
