Hey Washington state members,

how about telling your AG to reconsider cutting off the Florida CCW reciprocity. If not, Florida will have to ban yours too. NRA-ILA | WA Attorney General takes action against Florida Gun Owners

The lib-o-rats do love to limit us, don't they!

Maybe they want to be more like Oregon. Oregon doesn't accept any state.

This is one of the reason that I went to get mines for Oregon, but it seem like that numbers is getting smaller and smaller.

I'm all for supporting veterans, being one myself but Florida's legislation doesn't make much sense to me. 90% of veterans under the age of 21 don't receive any kind of pistol training in the military. Unless required for you MOS (MP, Armorer, etc.) most service personnel don't pistol qualify until they reach staff grade, long after they're 21. Now if their DD214 lists pistol training I'm all for it.

In addition, it's unfortunate, but I don't see how the AG had any choice. It's illegal under WA state law for anyone under 21 to possess a loaded handgun in public unless engaged in sporting activities like hunting or target shooting. Until our legislature changes that law, how could they let a 19 year old FL resident carry in WA but not a 19 year old WA resident? You have to follow the laws of the state you're carrying in not the issuing state for the permit.

But they do receive firearms training in most cases.
