After several long years, Florida has permitless carry. It’s not a perfect measure, as I’ve already noted, but it’s a major step forward.

Knife Rights supported Florida Permitless Carry bill, HB 543, which includes knives, has been signed by Governor DeSantis. Once in effect, starting July 1st, concealed carry in Florida without a permit will no longer be limited to a "pocket knife."
Florida became the 26th state – the majority state – Monday morning when Gov. Ron DeSantis signed CS/HB 543 at 8:15 a.m. The new law takes effect on July 1st, 2023.
