In Florida, who is responsible for issuing a Concealed Weapon or Firearm License (CWFL)?

  1. The Governor's Office

  2. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement

  3. The Division of Licensing under the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services

  4. Local Police Departments

The correct answer is: The Division of Licensing under the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services

The Division of Licensing under the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services is responsible for issuing a Concealed Weapon or Firearm License (CWFL) in Florida. This division processes the applications, conducts background checks, and ultimately grants or denies the licenses. The other options are not responsible for issuing CWFLs in Florida: - The Governor's Office does not handle CWFLs issuance. - The Florida Department of Law Enforcement does not issue CWFLs but is involved in the background check process. - Local Police Departments do not issue CWFLs; they may be involved in the application process but do not have the authority to grant the license.
