<h2>Gun Charges &amp; Penalties</h2>

If you are facing a charge of illegally carrying a concealed weapon, it is a felony charge that can result in up to 5 years in prison. Any convicted felon who uses a gun during a robbery faces a 3 year minimum prison sentence. An illegal sale of a weapon can also lead to a felony charge. Discharging a weapon can be a misdemeanor or felony charge depending on whether or not there is a past criminal history. If someone discharges a weapon from a car and within 1000 feet of another person, a 2nd degree felony is possible.

The harshest penalties for gun charges in Florida are referred to as the 10-20-life law. These are mandatory sentences handed down if a gun is used during a crime. There is an automatic 10 year prison sentence if a gun is brandished during a gun crime. If someone shoots or discharges a gun during a crime, there is a 20 year mandatory prison sentence. If someone is injured or killed with a gun during a crime, a conviction will result in a sentence of 25 years to life in prison.
