“The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.”
- Thomas Jefferson, Commonplace Book (quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria), 1774-1776

Florida is CC for CC. (Constitutional Carry, Concealed Carry)
Florida goes not allow open carry unless hunting, fishing or camping or shooting. You can open carry to/from these activities but be sure to conceal or stow it in your vehicle if you decide to stop for coffee.

I’ll have to get a CCW that matches my scuba gear that I’ll be using while looking for the pistols I lost in that boating accident.

Here is why:
“Fear not the night. Fear that which walks the night. And I am that which walks the night. But only evil need fear me...And gentle souls sleep safe in their beds. Because I walk the night. Carpe Noctem! (Seize the Night!)” Lt. Col. Dave Grossman from: “Why Mommy Carrys a Gun”.

I could carry a cop, but I don’t like most of them and it would also be extremely inconvenient.

More than a million being bought per month. But WHO is buying them?

I carry a handgun because itโs impractical to carry a rifle.

Correct.
Also, why give up the advantage of concealment? Open carry makes you the primary target in many situations.

That’s a lot of extra ammo. 556 isn’t heavy, but it adds up heh. Legs can only take so much.
