Just got a hit via the search: "fl handgun 3 day wait does weekends count".
No. No it does not. It is 3 business days. That means weekends and holidays are not counted.
My advice: Get yourself a concealed weapon permit, and you won't have to worry about the waiting period at all. It costs $115 plus a class, fingerprints, and passport-sized photos. The class is offered by most gun shops, as well as at every major gun show in the state (for around $45.)
In addition to not needing to wait for 3 days to pick up your new gun, the CWP offers you a lot of legal protection when you are transporting your firearms. Get it. It is worth it.
Also, the long-gun waiting period implemented by some counties does not apply to CWP holders, although it is simple enough to simple drive to the next county over to buy a long gun.
