A Florida Pardon and a Restoration of Firearms Rights in Florida both require an application with the Florida Board of Clemency. The good news is if you qualify for the Pardon, we can do both applications simultaneously for no additional charge. A convicted felon in Florida loses some civil rights, including the right to possess or use Firearms or ammunition. In Florida, one who is not a prohibited person and is over the age of 21 may purchase and possess firearms and ammunition, vote, have a concealed weapons permit and be licensed in a profession. However, if you are a Florida resident and convicted of a felony in Florida, Federally, or in another state, you probably lost the right to purchase or possess ammunition or firearms. Recently many states have automatically restored the civil rights of convicted felons to vote only. Florida does not automatically restore civil rights for firearms or ammunition.
