Florida gun registration?

If I purchase a handgun from a retail store in Florida is that gun registered in my name? Or am I require to do something after I get the gun to register it? Does it have to be registered? I want a gun I can keep when the government decides to confiscate all firearms.

    If you purchase it from a dealer, you will have to fill out a form 4733. They will have to call it in to the FBI, but the FBI is required by law to not keep the info. The gun store is required to keep the 4733 until they cease operations and then it must be sent to the BATF. There is no gun registration in FL. You should watch "Red Dawn" to see what can be done with 4733s.

    The sale is registered. But Fl. does not have gun registration.
