Florida Open Carry Law Starts Sept. 25 | Sheriff Urges Caution Over Legal Confusion

WFLA News Channel 8

Sep 19, 2025

Florida’s new open carry law goes into effect on September 25, but law enforcement officials are warning residents not to misinterpret what that means.

In this segment, a Florida sheriff breaks down the restrictions still in place --- including schools, courthouses, and government buildings — despite the new law allowing open carry. While the sheriff supports the Second Amendment, he argues concealed carry provides a safer, tactical advantage and avoids unnecessary legal risk.

He urges gun owners to default back to concealed carry rules, especially until the legislature can clarify the law’s gray areas. The message: just because open carry is legal doesn’t mean it’s allowed everywhere.
