Hello,
No, if adjudication of guilt was withheld in your case, you have not lost your civil rights. However, per the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) Firearms Purchase Program, you are usually prohibited from purchasing firearms for at least three years from the date your supervision terminated. You may contact FDLE at (850) 410-8139 for more information.
Also, you should consider having your record sealed. Feel free to visit my website for a free evaluation: record expungement
