Addendum to my post above...
A mandatory waiting period was indeed added to Florida's latest round of "gun controls", enacted after Parkland. The bump-stock ban portion of the law didn't go into effect until today, but the rest of it became effective when it was signed. It makes the waiting-period portion of the law now read as follows:
>>>
