Florida imposes a three-day waiting period for handgun purchases under the state constitution, counted from the sale day and excluding weekends and holidays, with counties allowed to extend it. Florida concealed weapon licence holders are exempt. The minimum age to buy any firearm from a dealer is 21, a rule subject to ongoing litigation. Background checks are conducted by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, and dealers charge a small state fee.
Dealers in these communities all work for Miami-area buyers:
Florida permits concealed carry without a licence for adults 21 and over who can legally possess a handgun and carry identification, effective July 2023. Open carry regulations have changed due to appellate litigation, so verify current rules. The concealed weapon licence, issued by the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, remains valuable for exempting holders from the handgun waiting period and facilitating dealer transactions. Carry is restricted in schools, courthouses, polling places, bars, and posted properties.
The Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission divides Florida into four deer management zones, with varying season dates due to the rut's south-to-north progression. Archery season starts first, followed by crossbow and muzzleloading, and general gun season ranges from September to February depending on the zone. Legal firearms for deer include centerfire rifles, shotguns, muzzleloaders, pistols, and bows, with additional rules for wildlife management areas. Feral hogs can be hunted year-round on private land with permission.
Miami-Dade is in Zone A, where general gun season starts in September. The Everglades and Francis S. Taylor WMA are the closest large public tracts, accessible mainly by airboat or buggy.
Hunters often travel west on the Tamiami Trail to the Everglades, with the nearest FWC-managed range located in Palm Beach County off Seminole Pratt Whitney Road.
The ranges on the city pages are public ranges run or listed by the state wildlife agency, a state forest or a national forest, chosen by distance from each city. Fees, passes and hours are the agency's.
