      So whats the shooting like here?

      I grew up with solar panels for power and carting water back from the well to fill our water tank up. Grew all our food in the back yard. Pigs, beef, buffalo. I'm trying to get that back

      This is my group from arizona. Most of the state is public land so you can literally just pull off the highway and start shooting. The last picture is one of my daughters. She likes to shoot too

      The area I'm from has over 15 million people. 3rd most densely populated place in the country. Not only is it about 70% cheaper here, I went from 15 million people around me down to 30 thousand

      So whats the shooting like here?

      I did know that, no it's not combat. With the state of the country and the direction we've been going for years, I've spent the last roughly 10 years training for the worst. I'm not training for a 5 to 10 foot self defense shooting. It's for a disaster I see coming in the near future.

      To be fair, I'm not from around here lol. There is no deer leasing in the south west. This is the first time I've ever heard of it. The only way your gonna hunt anything is to get drawn.

      Deer lease? What's that?

      So whats the shooting like here?

      this is exactly what I was getting at. I would even go as far to say a class or two a year isn't even close to being enough. If you carry a gun the more training and skills you have using it the better off you will be. Last winter I was out 2 or 3 times a month training. There is so much beyond...

      So whats the shooting like here?

      I'll check them out. One of the things I've learned over the years is tactics are always changing. One example I can think of off the top of my head is in the late 90s and early 2000s everyone was teaching square stance. It's completely different now. More of a running stance One foot in front...

      How much do you charge for class? I'm always interested in learning more.

      Home defense is important, that's what rifles and shotguns are for. I dabbled in room clearing a little bit and what really helps is printing out targets and taping them to the walls and inner side of your front door and use snap caps and dry fire. If you are to carry a gun with you outside the...

      How is one supposed to practice and hone their defensive shooting skills? That's extremely important if your gonna be carrying a weapon. Defensive shooting ALWAYS should be done moving. You never want to sit still because you are making yourself an easier target. Seems like a catch 22 with the...

      So whats the shooting like here?

      I've been looking around online a bit and I'm a little upset about that. It seems to be only laned ranges and they all seem (pay to enter). Not interested in that kind of shooting. Sadly I came from a state where you can just pull over out in the desert and start shooting however you want and it...

      So whats the shooting like here?

      Is there any place that's open enough to just drive up and start shooting? I train alot and have been training in bounding, combat medical, escape and evade tactics, moving and shooting, and various other drills like shooting 2 targets and sprinting about 100 yards and making a 300+ yard shot...

      New to florida and have some questions.

      Okay. Thank you for clearing that up. I couldn't find what I was looking for or found some fairly confusing and contradictory results. You've been a big help. I'm gonna continue to look at the statutes and see if there is anything left I don't understand

      Does that mean I need to take a training class to do it? Because one of the qualifications for a ccw is taking a class.

      The only reason I'm even asking here is because the statutes are confusing to me and I'm finding mixed results across the board.

      I do have one more question I can find no info on. Is it legal to conceal carry in your car without a ccw?

      Does that sound accurate to those of you who have been here a long time? I'm trying to make the responsible choice to carry my gun. But I'm kinda nervous to since I have an arizona license still and I'm not versed on Florida law.

      This is what I've found. Here is a link for reference.

      New to florida and have some questions.

      I want to carry my pistol in the state, what do I need to do to do it legally? I'm from arizona. In arizona I didn't need anything whatsoever to open carry or conceal carry. I've open carried rifles walking on the side walk of main roads in arizona. I understand you cannot do that here and it's...
