If one pleads guilty with adjudication withheld it is "defined" as a conviction to calculate "sentence points." That law is speaking only in terms of sentencing points ONLY. Voting rights, handgun rights, and the like remain intact.
ability to own a firearm requires waiting 3yrs after all terms fo the sentence have been satisfied. I'm in the same situation and have been doing a great amount of research, including talking to the FDLE about this particular matter.
