I carry this.

So, you don't care about complying with Florida law?
Well, actually, I guess it would be legal to openly carry it in Florida, just illegal to conceal without a permit.... so.... my mistake. That's actually pretty good deal in Florida...

Rustic,
Interesting choice, prefer the grip on a Rodgers and Spencer of that era myself. Would not be my choice for daily or concealed carry. Too much length for comfort while driving.
Take care and be safe

I carry an 1851 Navy when I go to special events. I find it is very comfortable while driving, so long as it is carried on the left side when driving, or the right side when a passenger. Of course, that only applies to open carry, where the barrel simply rides beside the seat.
I normally carry mine on the left side, cross draw, because an officer's primary weapon would be their sword on their strong side. I carry my 1851 Navy in a holster that I purchased in Iraq, originally for an M9, but it fits the Navy revolver almost perfectly!

For the record.... This was my post:
this was Pustic's reply:
The website's quote tags do not appear to working correctly.
If you want clarification of Florida statutes, it would not be illegal to open carry the gun in question, even with the .45 Colt conversion cylinder:
790.053 Open carrying of weapons.—
(1) Except as otherwise provided by law and in subsection (2), it is unlawful for any person to openly carry on or about his or her person any firearm or electric weapon or device.
790.001 Definitions.—As used in this chapter, except where the context otherwise requires:
(1) “Antique firearm” means any firearm manufactured in or before 1918 (including any matchlock, flintlock, percussion cap, or similar early type of ignition system) or replica thereof, whether actually manufactured before or after the year 1918, and also any firearm using fixed ammunition manufactured in or before 1918, for which ammunition is no longer manufactured in the United States and is not readily available in the ordinary channels of commercial trade.
(6) “Firearm” means any weapon (including a starter gun) which will, is designed to, or may readily be converted to expel a projectile by the action of an explosive; the frame or receiver of any such weapon; any firearm muffler or firearm silencer; any destructive device; or any machine gun. The term “firearm” does not include an antique firearm unless the antique firearm is used in the commission of a crime.
------------
It would be illegal to conceal that gun in Florida, without a license:
790.01 Carrying concealed weapons.—
(1) Except as provided in subsection (4), a person who carries a concealed weapon or electric weapon or device on or about his or her person commits a misdemeanor of the first degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083.
-------------
Obviously, Pustic does not obey laws or statutes, however, due to his second post freely admitting to committing a felony.
