An updated version of the 9th edition of the Florida Firearms — Law, Use & Ownership, gun law book was just released in June 2021. The book makes important changes to the 2021 legislative session, modifications to the section on security guards, modifications to the section on US Corps of Engineers controlled land/waterways, and changes throughout the book including an updating of the index. It should be noted that the sections in Chapters Six and Eight on the newly passed HB 259 (security of religious institutions) do not take effect until July 1, 2021, due to inaction by the Governor. Thus, it is still unlawful for a CWL holder to carry concealed on portions of the grounds of religious institutions having daycare or other school activities. This will change on July 1, 2021, to allow such concealed carry. Copies of the new book are available thru my website www.floridafirearmslaw.com, and dealers and gun ranges that carry the book — although I just started shipping the second week of June, so many dealers may not yet have it in. Check to make sure.
