I have heard that there is a "new" open carry law? What is it?
I wouldn't call it an open carry law. More like protection against being charged with open carry if you accidently expose your concealed handgun.

Quote:
34 It is not a violation of this section for a person licensed to
35 carry a concealed firearm as provided in s. 790.06(1), and who
36 is lawfully carrying a firearm in a concealed manner, to briefly
37 and openly display the firearm to the ordinary sight of another
38 person, unless the firearm is intentionally displayed in an
39 angry or threatening manner, not in necessary self-defense.
We have open carry in Nevada but why when you can CCW?
I agree with ozzy, ccw in NV, and would not consider open carry b/c it gives the advantage to anyone with criminal intent and gives dogooders a reason to make trouble.
Shoot what u carry and carry what u shoot.
Florida has NO open carry.
Thank You Marion Hammer

Thanks for the info!
New law clarifies accidental weapon exposure issue; goes into effect Oct. 1 Senate Bill 234, And tell Senator Greg Evers, R-Crestview Thanks for getting it done for us. He has been pushing this bill for us, Back from 2009. And on Oct-1-2011,We are free. :smt1099
When is a gun concealed? | StAugustine.com
I would not open carry even if we could in Texas.
IMHO It's a big advantage to carry concealed.
