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

  1. Yes, without exception

  2. No, CWFL holders are exempt

  3. Yes, but only for handgun purchases

  4. Yes, but only for private sales

The correct answer is: No, CWFL holders are exempt

A "Yes, without exception" is incorrect because there are certain situations where a background check may not be required, such as when a CWFL holder purchases a firearm from a licensed dealer that already ran a background check when they obtained their CWFL. B: "No, CWFL holders are exempt" is correct because under Florida law, CWFL holders are exempt from the state background check requirement when purchasing a firearm. C: "Yes, but only for handgun purchases" is incorrect because the exemption for CWFL holders applies to all firearms, not just handguns. D: "Yes, but only for private sales" is incorrect because the exemption for CWFL holders applies to all purchases, including private sales, as long as the seller is not a licensed dealer.
