It makes no difference what state you live in, it is a violation of FEDERAL law (USC, Title 18) for a convicted felon to ever own or possess firearms or ammunition.
So many people answer some of these questions by vomiting out the first thing that runs through their minds.
In most states a person convicted of a state felony can have their firearm rights restored. Some of you guys with answers need to read code 922 of the federal firearm laws...read the entire section.
Each state has different mechanisms where by you can have your firearm rights restored. Some policies are very simple and only require a post conviction waiting period where as other states can be much more complicated. Research your states policies on restoring rights, expungement, etc. Not every request for firearm privileges will have a favorable result. If your states language is easy to understand, try not to be too biased when reading the language...you may have to flip between the pages, then you can get a pretty good idea of what your chances are. Then hire a lawyer to help you through the process...it will be worth it! I am not a lawyer so I have no vested interest. After your rights are restored you may even be able to obtain a permit to carry a concealed weapon.
Everybody makes mistakes in life...everybody. Not everybody gets caught. Please let the man without sin pick up the first stone!
