Bill > S1336

This bill creates a new Florida law that provides immunity from civil liability to federal firearms licensees, which are individuals or businesses licensed to sell firearms under federal law, when they enter into "firearm hold agreements" with firearm owners. A firearm hold agreement is defined as a private arrangement where the licensee either stores the firearm securely in their facility with access only for the owner, or takes temporary physical possession of a lawfully owned firearm at the owner's request and returns it later. This immunity applies to acts or omissions related to these agreements, including the return of the firearm, as long as the licensee is operating lawfully and the action wasn't the result of otherwise unlawful conduct by the licensee. However, this protection does not apply to firearm transfers under a specific existing law or if there is a known protection order in place against the firearm owner. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
