Understanding Your Florida Statewide Firearm License

Your Statewide Firearm (G License) allows you to legally work as an armed security officer or private investigator under Chapter 493 in the state of Florida.

Valid for 2 years
Required for armed security work
Separate from a concealed weapon license (CWL)

⚠️ Important: A concealed weapon license does NOT allow you to work as an armed security officer under Chapter 493.

What Happens If You Miss Your Requalification?

This is where many officers make costly mistakes.

Your expiration date and requalification date are NOT the same.

If you miss your yearly requalification:

Your G License can be suspended
You cannot legally work as an armed security officer
You may lose job opportunities or current contracts

To return to work, your license must be active and compliant.

👉 Bottom line: Don’t risk your career over a missed date.
