Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

You should be able to since you were not "convicted" under Florida law.

In Florida, once you complete your probation or other court supervision/requirements on a withheld adjudication, you are not considered a convicted felon so would be eligible to purchase a firearm.

Then there is the federal question - I believe the FBI does look at state law and would consider your withheld adjudication in determining whether you are eligible under federal law.

Call the FBI - ask for them to send you a VAF file then complete it and return it. I believe they will assign you a personal ID number so you will be able to have a firearm (and have proof of the legality of you owning it)
