What you should have when carrying concealed in Florida

[MrWayne1701]

you supposed to carry all that stuff, a utility belt like batman?

[GTILOUD]

I live in Fl and I carry a Glock 23, beacuse I can't carry my Core 15 AR15.

[nadiemequire]

Good advice.

[Wrongway1965]

Does Fl recognize Va.'s CCW permit?

How are they on open carry in your vehicle?

thanx

[TigerGrumman]

What kind of world (country) have we created for ourselves, when we must leave our homes and places of work, loaded down with firearms, blades, chemical weapons and our Defense Attorney on speed dial? WTH!

We are a nation in terminal decline, if this is the road we are preparing to travel once again. I thought the 20's, 30's, 40's and 50's were over, folks? I guess not. I guess we WANT to go back to the days of Eliot Ness, Al Capone and Baby Face Nelson?

Common sense is dead in America.

[Wrongway1965]

@TigerGrumman .. Hiya Tig-Gru, I hear ya & feel the same way.. however, while I wouldn't buy into this mentality of "OMG! WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!! LETS ARM OURSELVES!!".. things are kinda weird out on the streets & highways right now.. And I do have the right to defend myself.. although, I rarely carry concealed or openly, I do choose to use my right to protect me & mine.. 'If!' the need should ever arise to that level..

& if crime was so bad back then, why didn't people lock their doors @ nite ?

[GMELECTRONICS365]

@TigerGrumman Criminals have always been there if you choose not to be a victim is all up to you.

"... to call your self-dense attorney."

Isn't that lovely? Some scumbag does his thang, you blow him alway, and now you get to have his family come at you with wallet-draining lawsuits litigating for years and, too, you and your loved ones might get to be threatened or worse by the scumbags buddies.

How 'bout just packing it up in a hurry and fleeing the scene, if possible?

[mrrightwing1000]

Lol, he messed up the saying. It goes, "if all you have is a hammer, then every problem looks like a nail."

[darkwriter77]

They say "never carry cheap tools", and yet they have what looks to be an ACT brand 1911 magazine loaded with FMJ's. FAIL! Should've shown a Chip McCormick or other quality mag loaded with good JHP's. Otherwise, good suggestions in this vid.

You might also want to add that, when carrying an extra magazine (or two, or more), you'll want to have a holster of some kind for it, as well - you don't wanna have to dig around for it when you need it, and you don't want a mag full of pocket lint.

[PopeAssassins]

there should be no guns, if there was no such thing as guns you wouldnt need 1 to protect urself in the first place

[themagicskateboarder]

@PopeAssassins yes very true but guns are not the only weapon people can use, a rock can be used as a weapon so its not like if you ban guns all problems will go away. But on the other hand i think that if everyone owned a gun and people knew everyone owned a gun then there would be way less times you would need to protect yourself because no one would feel over powered... and with the name popeASSASSINS i figured you would like guns

[PopeAssassins]

@themagicskateboarder i dont think a rock can be compared to a GUN

[titaniumery1]

@PopeAssassins LOL... if i GGrab a rock and thhrow it at your face thhen run at you you Have to move or you will get hit, and as i run at you i can either tackle and destroy your gun arm with an arm bar or many other moves, or i can just mess you up with my knife or sumthing, knives are more dangerous then guns. keep that in mind. it is far easier to move your arm around and damage flesh then point shoot and hope you disable. if you are going to CC you should learn combat, NO ONE LIKES A PUNK.

[bddc201]

@PopeAssassins You don't honestly believe that, do you? That is the most hopelessly deluded statement imaginable from a thoughtful adult. A person who believes that statement should be forced to undergo a psychiatric examination to determine mental competence.

[PopeAssassins]

@bddc201 i ask you would there be more or less deaths if guns diddnt exist

[bddc201]

@PopeAssassins 1. Not a realistic question, guns exist, they will probably always exist. 2. It's the wrong question. People use whatever means available to kill one another. What if murder didn't exist?

[titaniumery1]

@PopeAssassins LOL and on that instance<<< human nature is to kill destroy and create... if there wasnt a gun for me too carry, i would have mother natures BOW, or a metal KNIFE, or if all else fails, HUMAN ANATOMY, tell me if you are a peace maker and you didnt have a weapon, and i atacked you what COULD you do, i study martial arts and i develop my own techniques just like the first men and women did, the human anatomy is easy to destroy. can you defend your heart, joints, and organs from hand

[jroxx11211]

the whole point of carrying concealed is not letting people know you carry, if your legal, its nobodys business and allowed by law, here in fla. more than 780,000 people carry legally, thats almost 1 in 15, if more people carried legally, there would be less people victimized!!!!!

[TheBelldiver]

That makes sense to have a selection for self defence. This way if you are forces to shoot yo may present the court that consideration was made. And that a deliberate, intertional action was made.

[joezbackwith2gatz]

Veyr helpful video... As for the badge I dont think that would be good for anyone to carry. I wish they made the Permits a little better. My permit looks like a kid in high school made it. They should make them out of plasic and put a mark of some kind on our License... Like a haz-mat or tanker logo on the back...

[fanon70]

Good video! What do you think about the new licenses without the address on them?

[Christopher71488]

@spacecadet980 actually, no. Impersonation laws are more complex than that. To be arrested for impersonation, you must either verbally assert that you are LE, or you must in some way assert power associated with a LEO. You can walk down broadway in full NYPD dress but unless you do the above, you're legal.

[Christopher71488]

@BraniusBalki fighting fire with fire doesn't work? Machiavelli said that the only way to

Prevent further violence is to commit an act so violent, the enemy cannot retaliate. Violence solves violence. Violence created independence, ended slavery, ended hitler's genocide. Anyone who says violence doesn't solve is either mentally unstable or just good old fashioned stupid.

[nodillinger]

a badge will bring you almost as much grief as a unlicensed weapon in calif.as a bail agent licensed and badged by the state dept.of insurance,no badge for ccw .if i show a badge for anything not job specific exclusively it's considered impersonating a police officer mucho trouble they really resent it

[BraniusBalki]

You're living in a fantasy world.... if life is so threatened in your country I feel sorry for you, in my country there are very few guns, and it is illegal to carry them, we have a few shootings every year, but these are almost always either family related or gang related, sorry you live in a violent country but fighting fire with fire does not work.

[nodillinger]

@BraniusBalki people are people what do they do there,use blunt force trauma.there's a old lyric in a blues song,that really sums it up"stagger lee told billy i will cut you if you stand,or shoot you if run"so decisions are sometimes made for you by other people,and you must respond bummer huh!

[HEIGHTSIXFIVE]

Can you carry a big knife under the concealed weapons permit?

[grandamracer23]

@metzGRR pussy....

[spacecadet980]

If someone sees you are carrying a concealed weapon, then DUH!!! It is not concealed then.....Also most states will arrest anyone carrying a ' badge ' that even resembles a law enforcement officer. If you want to carry a badge, then join the police or sheriff's department. That is known as ' imitating a LEO '. Off to jail ya go.... CONCEAL CARRY is NOT the same as law enforcement....

[5myth11]

look like a pervert lmao!!

[fallout3geek]

@floridaconcealed: I disagree about never carrying a badge, say you are holding a bad guy at gunpoint when law enforcement shows up and the bad guy says "Shoot he is going to kill me". If you have a badge you can show it and yell "Concealed Permit" or something and the LE most likely would not shoot you then

[dingo51122]

@fallout3geek And then get arrested for impersonating a police officer. If you just comply with the officer then they will know that you have a license after they get the situation under control. Besides, you should not have a person held a gunpoint. If you need to have your firearm out, it should be a last resort to stop the bad guy, so there should be no threat when police arrive.

[762Fanatic]

@fallout3geek yeah that makes a lot of sense make sudden movements and shout at a cop with a gun pointed at you /sarcasm

idiot.

[mach116993]

Where does it say you must have a drivers license?

[SwerVQE]

is that a kimber pro carry ii?

[Jvarg4407]

i feel a badge is quite useful in the unlikely event that someone sees you are carrying a concealed weapon (maybe you're printing) they are less likely to panic and call the cops on you if they see a badge next to that gun on your belt

[floridaconcealed]

@Jvarg4407 I appreciate your feelings, but if they do not panic it is because they believe you are a law enforcement officer, not a licensee. Bad guys can buy fake badges too.

[dlt215]

@floridaconcealed LAW ENFORCEMENT ARE LICENSE

[bugaljuice]

@floridaconcealed i think hes point us to make sure that people dont panic if they see your gun. i Know alot of forums hate the badge and they think its gay. I personally think its to keep the public calm and not have the cops on your butt if a civilian sees it. and f a cop sees it, im sure they are train enough to recognize it. with proper documentations you should be ok.

[pacodlux]

@Jvarg4407 That CCW badge is for a wannabe. If you carry concealed, keep it concealed.

[vulpixgrant]

@Jvarg4407 - Wouldn't having a badge by your gun even if it sez Security Officer or Concealed Carry Licensed be impersonating a Police Officer in the most basic sense? The court could say that was the whole reason you had the badge was to make the people who spotted the damn thing think you were a cop? 

[floridaconcealed]

For the same reason I don't have a badge saying I have a driver's license, I suppose.  It doesn't do anything. A waste of money.

[madtrev89]

why not have a conceld carry badge?
