Hello Fellow Gun-shine State'ers,
Well as we all know OC is illegal in our fine state. Fortunately, it's one of the few un-friendly gun laws we have around these parts. As I hope many of you do know, however, it is legal to OC as "a person engaged in fishing, camping, or alwful hunting, or going to or from such an expedition" according to the chart of exemptions under F.S. 790.25.
Simple question here. Has anyone here ever legally OC'd in Florida under this exemption while hunting, fishing, or camping? Any issues with fellow campers, park or wildlife officials, or other LEOs?
I'll be hunting in January and intend on OC'ing during the hunting trip itself. Once I'm done I'll be reverting back to CC for the trip to and from home. I see the provision "going to or from such an expedition" but I think I'd prefer not to test an LEO's knowledge or benefit of the doubt on that particular point.
Just looking for some of your thoughts.
