Is a background check required every time a CWFL holder purchases a firearm in Florida?

Yes, without exception
No, background checks are not needed for CWFL holders
Yes, but only for purchases from federal firearms licensees
No, but only for private sales

The correct answer is: Yes, but only for purchases from federal firearms licensees

While CWFL (Concealed Weapon or Firearm License) holders are exempt from background checks for firearm purchases in Florida, this exemption only applies to purchases from non-federal firearms licensees. Therefore, in Florida, a background check is required for every firearm purchase made by a CWFL holder from a federal firearms licensee. Option A is incorrect because there are exceptions to the background check requirement for CWFL holders. Option B is incorrect because background checks are still required for purchases from federal firearms licensees. Option D is also incorrect because, again, only purchases from non-federal firearms licensees are exempt from background checks for CWFL holders.
