Best Answer

No, federal law prohibits felons from owning or possessing any firearms, period.

The one loop-hole would to have your conviction expunged by the jurisdiction in which you were convicted.

Simply completing the terms required does not restore your rights.

If somebody is on federal supervised release after serving his sentence and completed 2 years of the 3 recommended And left the country is there a statute of limitations 7 years then what happens?

Define what you mean by "supervised release." If you are referring to "PAROLE," and they are in violation of the conditions of their parole, they can be returned to prison to finish the unexpired remainder of their sentence when they are found and/or try to re-enter the country. There are no statutes of limitation after which persons convicted and sentenced for a federal offense are "home free," or the charges "go away."
