Just curious, as my renewal is right around the corner...... How long 'til "D" (Disarm) Day for you? Did you get a renewal pkg early, or did they send it 90 days out?
Renewals get priority. You will not have to wait long.

However this brings another question in 7 years from now when I have to renew mine I will have to renew with 90,000 other renewals......I can expect great service for me since I am still waiting for the mail man to drop it off yet.....thanks.....in 7 years for me another mess to look forward too.....thanks....:dancingbanana
never thought about that, i wonder if you can renew early lol, id renew in like 5-6 years and then get away from the cluster**** thats going on right now

Sent it early like 90 days till disarm day, being LEO not really warried about being disarmed.
But I Do not like having a cool off period purchasing a handgun.

Do they actually require the cool off period for LEOs? Oh well, another one of those well thought out laws. Before Alabama went to the NICS system, I used to laugh at how silly the waiting period was. It didn't make sense that I could go into a gun shop wearing a concealed weapon with my permit, but I had to have a cooling off period before I could pick up a new firearm. Makes a lot of sense doesn't it?

When I was LE, I didn't have to wait to buy a firearm. Go in uniform and see if they challenge you.

Under the letterhead of your dept. you can, but not as a private citizen without having a conceal license.

That stinks that they have that law in (Florida). Ohio here and they do not have any wait time. What amazes me though, I would bet that most people that buy guns probably already have a gun. So in my opinion that law is foolish. Think about it, I bet 90% of the buyers are not first time buyers when you go to a gun store. What is that law going to really do for you?
I just renewed my CWFL...19 days from mailbox to mailbox. :thumsup

And if you trade in a gun on a new gun, the waiting period is waived.

I was on Duty/call to duty 24 hrs/7 days a week like all Deputy Sheriffs in the County. I would show my credentials and pick the gun up the same day. This was Pre- 2000. If the laws changed since then, that would be ridiculous law.

It is ridiculous, but here's the stat.,

[3] Section 790.0655(1)(a), Fla. Stat. Pursuant to s. 790.0655(2), Fla. Stat., the three day waiting period does not apply when a handgun is being purchased by the holder of a concealed weapons permit or when another handgun is being traded in. Violation of the statute providing the three day waiting period is made a third degree felony by s. 790.0655(3), Fla. Stat.

Stupidest Law on the books. This tells me that Florida is in it for the money.. I can understand if your retired and don't have a license. (me), but active duty? that is just wrong. I was carrying off duty when I purchased my new firearms. Maybe that had something to do with it?

Uh oh, you are starting to DATE yourself. "back in the old days when I was a deputy......" Could you send your 12 year old son to the gun store to pick up your gun for you back then?:rolf
I received confirmation that the DOL received my renewal application on March 4th...I called today to check on the status an d was told... "Yes, we received your application on April 4th and it is in process." and before I could inquire further was brushed off and the call was disconnected....:thumbsdwn

The good ole days :D back when your hands weren't tied and you could do your job.. Decided to leave after they started video taping our actions to avoid a potential civil suit.

Took me 35 days from box to box for the renewal.
