Florida Concealed Weapon or Firearm License (CWFL) Practice Exam

Yes, a background check is required for all applicants applying for a Florida Concealed Weapon or Firearm License (CWFL). This background check is an essential part of the application process to ensure that individuals obtaining a CWFL do not have disqualifying criminal offenses or other factors that would prevent them from responsibly carrying a concealed weapon or firearm. Therefore, Option A is correct. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the requirement for a background check for all applicants, regardless of their criminal history. Trusting applicants on the honor system would not provide the necessary verification to ensure the safety of the community when individuals carry concealed weapons, and background checks are in place to prevent potentially dangerous individuals from obtaining a CWFL.
