Yep, been that way for over 25 years now. Hunting, fishing, camping - on your way to or from. Plus a few other cases as provided for in 790.25(3) Florida Statutes. Like at home/work, the range, etc. |

I'm surprised more people don't exercise that right.

"the ride" What happened? Please elaborate indeedTold by the campground host at ocean pond that it was cool to OC as we were camping...first forest cop who rolls through pretty much has a conniption about us carrying, saying pretty much he didn't care what the law stated we'd get the ride if we didn't conceal our weapons....he then continued to shoot bullshit with us for an hour or so, after flipping our shirts over our weapons...not so dramatic but something to be aware of.... National forest....so don't know if state law pre empts, all the same wasn't worth the additional grief |

I'm surprised more people don't exercise that right. Perhaps this is why they don't: (from a recent thread on another forum): I was planing an open carry fishing trip for me and the wife to celebrate our anniversary and thought, hey I wonder what the BCSO (Brevard County Sheriff's Office) thinks of open carry fishing? I contacted the BCSO in writing and asked if their department was familiar with F.S. 790.25(3)(h) fishing activity. This is part of their written response.
A Lieutenant with the Brevard County Sheriff's office responded ......."While 790.25(3)(h) allows person engaged in fishing, camping, or lawful hunting or going to or returning from a fishing, camping, or lawful hunting expedition to possess a firearm it does not enable a person to carry a weapon anywhere they want openly, particularly in urban and suburban areas where others are present. You may also wish to review FSS 810.09 (2) which identifies the offense of armed trespass as a 3rd Degree Felony and FSS 877.03 regulating Breach of the Peace / Disorderly Conduct, a 2nd degree misdemeanor.

The officer was pretty fair with us but didn't wanna have to deal with folks quoting the law to hm...so discretion being the better part of valor..we chose to comply with his wishes....wasn't any point in ruining a good weekend of beer drinking, steak burning and gun shooting just to exercise the right to open carry |
