    You can own handguns,shotguns,and rifles at 18 on your own.

    To buy them is another matter you can buy a rifle and shotgun at 18 at a Federally licensed gun shop but you cant buy a handgun at a Federally licensed gun shop till you turn 21.

    Now you can buy a handgun at 18 through a private deal or have your parents gift you a handgun at the gun shop.But handgun ammunition you need to be 21 to buy exception is if the handgun ammunition is for a rifle then they can sell you the ammunition if they believe it is for a rifle.Otherwise you have to get a parent or someone 21 and up to buy the handgun ammunition for you.

    I strongly recommend you get the book by Jon H. Gutmacher

    named Florida Firearms Law,use & ownership

    It is a great book that will give you all the gun laws of Florida and is very useful.
