Status: Failed
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill strikes the entire subsection (13) of s. 790.065 that barred persons under 21 from purchasing firearms, barred licensed importers/manufacturers/dealers from selling or transferring firearms to them, imposed third-degree felony penalties, and provided narrow exceptions for certain law enforcement and military. This repeal expands the ability of 18-20 year olds to purchase firearms from licensed dealers.
