...just another St. Pete newbie!
Had a NY CCP in the mid-70's. Still have the little Colt Cobra I bought in '74. Still the first gun I go for when something goes "bump" in the night.
Been in Florida since '82. Have had a Florida CCP for almost ten years. Have rarely carried in-state in the past. Find myself carrying more and more, lately. Must be a political thing!
Maybe one of you Florida Crackers can answer a question for me. I had a stolen identity problem prior to getting my FL-CCP. Even with my CCP, when I go to buy a hand gun from a licensed dealer, I am denied on the telephone call. I then have to send an appeal to FDLE along with a current set of prints. I do, eventually, receive an approval letter. Huge pain in the butt!
I have heard, of late, that someone in my situation can apply for a Florida Personal ID Number (PIN) for their CCP, but... I can find no information on how to do that. I have looked through the FDLE web site without success. Anyone here been through that?
Many thanks for any suggestions!
