I used to live in Orlando and buy all my guns from "Shoot Straight", in Apopka. Unless the laws have changed since I moved, you have to be a resident in the State of Florida, with a Florida I.D. or drivers lisences to purchase a firearm there.

In order to buy a long gun in Florida, the state that you reside in must allow you, or not prohibit you, from purchasing a firearm out of state, except for bordering states (AL and GA). Many states will only allow their residents to purchase in bordering states, some do not prohibit their residents from purchasing long guns in another states.

Go here to see if Indiana allows its residents to purchase long guns out of state.

If you have dual residency (you or your parents (If you are still considered a dependent) own a house in Florida and Indiana and actually live half the year here and half there) you can buy a long gun or hand gun in Florida.

I have bought long guns in different states many times. I've bought them in Cincinnati OH, Georgia,FL. I'm now living in NC and recently bought a rifle from my dealer back home in FL. All legal. If you go into W*M they have a map of the USA and the green states they can sell it to resdients from other states. Red is a restricted state. I'm sure if you research federal laws it says a non resident can buy a long gun in any state. I was also told that by a dealer with many years experience in the gun business.

Handguns YOU MUST BE A RESIDENT OF THAT STATE

You will have to have the out of state gun dealer ship the gun to a Florida ffl holder. Then the Florida ffl holder will have to register the gun to you. If you buy from a private owner you pay take the gun and go and forget about it. Jim

I never heard of any long gun restrictions as to buying from other states.

Here is Louisiana's law. I am posting LA because I already know that they can not purchase in FL.
