Questions concerning unlicensed carry in personal vehicle: Florida
I have a question for individuals, who have knowledge of Florida Gun Laws. I currently do not have a CWP. I am told that it is legal to carry a loaded handgun in the glove box, of my personal vehicle. I will keep it in condition #1.
My question is this: Is this legal, or am I asking for trouble if I get pulled over? Do I announce to LE that I have a gun, or do they always ask these days? If by chance I need to use it in a life or death situation (attempted robbery of myself, car jacking, etc.).. what are some examples of justifiable use scenarios?
Also, I own a shotgun and handgun for home defense purposes. I keep both loaded at all times. The square mile radius around my house has the highest crime rate in my county. I enjoy working on projects at night, in my attached garage (with the doors open). I keep my pistol in a box within reach. If by chance I need it to protect myself, what are some examples of justifiable use scenarios? I am somewhat familiar with the FL Castle Doctrine, and "meeting force with force".
