What paperwork is required to purchase a firearm? how long does it take to get approval? I currently have a conceal weapons permit,

We require proof of Florida residency. Florida drivers license or current state property taxes with documented property address. With a valid CWP there is no waiting period. You may call if you have any other questions. 954-596-0526

The standard paperwork, takes about 5-10 minutes to fill out, nothing special. The waiting period depends on how busy the ATF is at the time of your purchase. There is no "ideal time" to purchase. I've seen waits early in the morning and late at night. I've seen no waits also.

Drivers license and CCW required and about 1/2 you can be on your way.
