I am looking to apply for a carry permit in Florida but would like to know if there is a national permit where I can carry the gun just about anywheres in the U.S. If not, is there a carry permit higher (with more benefits) than just the regular one every Floridian gets in Florida? All answers would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

None that I know of but several states will grant reciprocity to Floridians with a concealed (carry) weapons permit. Research this through google and ask for CWP information, national.
After you have been granted the CWP you may also add to your "range" by applying for a New Hampshire permit which is also recognized in states that does not honor your Florida permit.
Write to New Hampshire State Police Permits and License Unit, 33 Hazen Drive, Concord, NH 03305. You will be asked to supply a photocopy of your Florida permit, complete a one page application form and remit $20.00.
My New Hampshire permit allows me to carry in 10 states and, coupled with my home state, I can carry in 21 other states.
Some other states will issue non-resident permits but their requirements are much more stringent.
I'm sure that Florida has a grassroots gun rights organization that can give you all of the information you want but you will have to do the search. Sorry.
Hope this helps.

You would have to be an FBI or other Federal agent to carry outside your home state. Bear in mind that some other States honor the Florida carry permit. You can also get a Utah permit that is also recognized elsewhere.
Or, become a two-faced politician like anti-gun Dianne Feinstein, who got her carry permit because she felt 'threatened'.
For better info, look at:

this is mainly regulated by the states. it depends on the state what kind of gun you can carry, if you need a permit or not. you have to get a permit in every state that you wish to carry a concealed weapon.my dad is a cop, and he can carry his in any sate he wants, and can even bring it on a plane as as long as he declares it and its in checked baggage. that's the only exception i can think of.

there is only one permit that you can get. it is called a concealed weapons permit. however when you take the class you can check to see if any states around you will let you enter there state with that permit. for instance if you have a permit in Tennessee you can enter any state that touches tn. all states that touch tn complies with tn permit. they will let you know all about it in the class you take, they will even have books that let you know were and how you have to carry the weapon in each state.

Anything less than full carry is UNCONSTITUTIONAL!
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed."
Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution
and for the grammatically challenged Democrats:
A well educated populace, being necessary to the success of a free state, the right of the people to keep and read books shall not be infringed.
Does this mean only well educated people shall own books????
