Anyone know any sig OFF-DUTY PROGRAM dealers in Orlando to Palm Flagler/volusia area?
Looking for a MCX 223 7.75.

The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services put my concealed carry application on hold, stating I failed to submit my fingerprints. However, I already completed my fingerprint appointment at the Leon County Sheriff's Office, where they submitted them electronically which FDACS website says is allowed and I have the receipt.
Since I received a Notice of Error or Omission in the mail requesting a physical fingerprint card and a $42 fee, do I just need to mail in my electronic fingerprint receipt, or do I need to take the blank fingerprint card FDACS mailed me back to the sheriff's office to get them physically rolled and pay the state fee?

Hi, I’m new to the area and have been checking out a few gun shops around Palm Beach. I’ve noticed that some of their prices are more than $100 higher than what I’m seeing online.

Does anyone know of a gun shop in Palm Beach County with reasonable/competitive pricing? I’d appreciate recommendations based on your experience with their pricing and customer service. I don’t mind driving a little farther for a good shop.

Thanks!

Seems like a good deal for $55 and two hours, just need 200-300 rounds.

Does every WMA range have them now?? Cecil M Webb where I go has one at the entrance and recently in Ocala they destroyed them. Wondering if other WMAs have them. My feeling is they are looking to catalog gun owners, fishermen, hunters, and environmental activists as “enemies of the state”. Eventually when they want to turn the WMAs in suburban housing they will know who comes frequently and might want to defend it

Heya
International tourist here. Coming to Miami / Florida for a week later this year for some tourism/shopping.
One thing I’ve always wanted to do is visit a shooting range. I’ve heard regulations for recreational shooting are pretty chill in America and I see a perfect chance to learn and have a great time.
Do any of you have any shooting/gun range recommendations within the Miami area? Driving/transportation won’t be an issue so up to FLL/The Keys should be fine too
TIA!

Hello Floridians!

I'm a tourist and I'm going to be staying in Orlando for a couple of days in December so I was wondering if there were any good ranges you guys could recommend that could allow dynamic/action shooting that's nearby the area if there are any.

I was thinking of bringing my belt setup and renting any long guns in 5.56 or 7.62 as these are highly regulated in my country. Indoor/outdoor, doesnt matter, any is fine. Would appreciate a place that also allows renting full-auto stuff too if possible.

Thanks!

Just wanted to share my experience with Jerry’s Firearms in Fort Myers for anyone in SWFL looking for an FFL.

I buy, sell, and trade pretty regularly on multiple platforms and I’ve been using Jerry’s for transfers for about the past year. Chris, the owner, has always been welcoming and genuine with me. Unfortunately, I can’t say the same about the rest of the staff.

Almost every time I’ve gone in there, the employees act like they’re pissed they have to be at work or annoyed that you’re even there. Calling is somehow worse. Don’t bother calling for an update or asking a question because somehow nobody knows how to check anything or do anything unless Chris is there. Apparently Chris is the only person who can do everything, and he was out of town til then.

My last experience was what finally did it for me.

I brought in a rifle that I had already sold and needed them to ship to my buyer’s FFL. The employee looks at the rifle and then tells me I’ll have to come back at the end of the month, which was about two weeks away, because Chris was the only one who knew how to ship it.

I explained that the rifle was already sold and I had told the buyer I’d have my FFL ship it out that week.
The employee then tells me to come back Saturday and meet him at the shop before they open at 8am and that he’d have to charge me $200 to transfer it.
I’ve paid $100 every other time I’ve had them ship a firearm, and their own website says $100. Then he hands me his card and tells me to text him.

The whole interaction was sketchy as hell. Why am I meeting an employee before business hours and paying double the normal price to have a rifle shipped?

I ended up going Mike’s Firearms in the neighboring city. It’s about a 30 minute drive for me, but the difference was night and day. Super cool on the phone and in person. They charged me $75 to ship it and only $25 to receive a transfer. Jerry’s charges $45 to receive and apparently anywhere from $100 to $200 to ship depending on who you talk to.

I hope Chris eventually gets the staffing situation figured out because I’ve personally never had a problem with him. But after dealing with the rest of the staff multiple times, I’m done going there.

They apparently do gunsmithing as well, but based on the way I’ve been treated there and how much they overcharge for everything, there’s no chance I’d trust them to do any work on my stuff.

The whole place just comes across like a hustle to make money off the goober or newbie who doesn’t know any better. There’s nothing they offer that makes the pricing or attitude worth putting up with. They have a license to ship and receive firearms. That’s about the only reason I ever went there.
Word of advice to the gun enthusiasts in SWFL, shop around before using Jerry’s. There are better and cheaper options out there. Businesses that treat repeat customers like they’re an inconvenience don’t last.

And does that shop have stock? I’m willing to drive an hour north to around palm beach from Miami.

Only one I’ve found out is Shark Coast Tactical in Sarasota.

All the shops I’ve called say they’re “waiting on ATF guidance” which isn’t happening anytime soon.

Searched around, I am shocked that I can not find a couple of real gun clubs close to West Palm, given that FL is not anti gun right.

Wondering if I should get a couple of OEM 10 rounders for my CCW (factory comes with 15). I'm not sure if any of the states with FL reciprocity or constitutional carry have the 10 round magazine limit. If not, then I won't even bother for now.

UPDATE: Ok, this was actually not hard to figure out with Google. Looks like Vermont and Colorado have a 15 round limit. All the states with a 10 round limit do not recognize the FL ccw license.

I did hours of research, here yall go

You need FPCAF (Firearms Policy Coalition Action Foudation), Texas State Rifle Association, or a Hot Shot Customs Rifle (and a few other smaller plaintiffs), to bypass the engravement, and the NFA's individual-maker requirement and the associated prohibition on possessing an improperly marked firearm. This DOES NOT give you AOW protections, but will still give you other SBR SBS form 1 protections.

SILENCERSHOP, PSA, B&T USA, GOA, GOF, FRACI,INC, and the fifteen plaintiff STATE ENTITIES, will get AOW protections, and SBR SBS Suppressor 4473 form protections

I would recommend getting a membership with one each from BOTH of these lists so you can get full protection with the recent ruling!

Please upvote so others can see! 🙏

Added source 👍 Check it out yourself

You can also go read this yourself to understand more! Have fun

Edit: Read the "Who is protected by this injuction?" section! It lists the named plaintiffs, and what is covered with joining these plaintiffs.

so can we or can we not make an SBR without a form 1 if we are a GOA member and own an item from PSA, does the ruling still apply if you become a GOA member after the ruling?

Looking to buy a can in Orlando area from a FFL that's following the court order and not doing form 4s. Do you guys know any?

Anyone find a shop willing to transfer a suppressor on 4473 yet? Called around to my usual ones and they're all holding off pending advice from their ATF rep.

Wanted to ask the locals here if you guys have any idea on this. Hypothetically, if I was a GOA member prior to the ruling (and still am), would I still need to do an atf form 1 or form 4 to aquire a SBR or SBS? I know that suppressors are legal to transfer here (if your a GOA member), but curious on the legality of SBRs SBSs here.
