Had a gentlemen in my shop claiming that floridas ccw law was recently amended to say that when carrying concealed, your holster now has to have some sort of snap. He said he could no longer use his remora holster since it didn't have any kind of snap and is thus now illegal. Did I miss something? I've been carrying with a remora exclusively for over a year now and have never heard of any amendment to the law. He claimed they revise it every year.

Yeah I'd go ahead & ban that guy from your shop. He's a complete moron & you don't need him there.

Yeah I thought that sounded a bit sketchy and after more research couldn't find anything to back the claim up, thankfully.

I think that might be a misunderstanding arising from Florida's car-carry requirements for a person who does not have a valid carry permit.

Notwithstanding subsection (2), it is lawful and is not a violation of s. 790.01 for a person 18 years of age or older to possess a concealed firearm or other weapon for self-defense or other lawful purpose within the interior of a private conveyance, without a license, if the firearm or other weapon is securely encased or is otherwise not readily accessible for immediate use. Nothing herein contained prohibits the carrying of a legal firearm other than a handgun anywhere in a private conveyance when such firearm is being carried for a lawful use. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to authorize the carrying of a concealed firearm or other weapon on the person. This subsection shall be liberally
construed in favor of the lawful use, ownership, and possession of firearms and other weapons, including
