I must have been wrong about the shooting part. There was some talk of it a few years ago and I thought Florida had added it to the class requirements. I used my DD-214 (Honorable Discharge). I did, in fact, qualify with a .45 when I was in the Navy...but not everyone did.Bulldog1911 wrote:Interesting, they didn't have to shoot!!!!ScottDLS wrote:Florida is pretty expensive, and ironically they don't recognize non-res licenses from other states. They also require you to shoot. I doubt the Florida option saved them much money. The fee $117.00. I had one for a few years.

He convinced his dad and the other family members that were going to take the class with us to do the same. I tried repeatedly to convince them that it was a stupid idea. What if Texas decides to not honor non-resident permits? Then you'll have to do it the right way and it will cost you more money in the long run. Of coarse he didn't listen.
When their "Utah instructor" came, he gave them the option of getting a Utah or Florida license. They opted for Florida. Does anyone know if Florida is contemplating a similar bill?
