Permitless Carry FAQs with Sheriff Grady Judd
On July 1, 2023, Floridians will be legally allowed to carry a concealed weapon or firearm. This is NOT an "open carry" law.
Sheriff Judd explains the law here for those who still have questions, and for more information please visit https://www.polksheriff.org/about/faqs
Remember: per Florida Statute 790 there are still restrictions on who is legally allowed to possess a firearm and where you are legally allowed to carry one.
We encourage you to educate yourself about the laws; learn how to properly clean, store, and fire a gun; and always secure them so children and others can't hurt themselves or someone else.
