A felon may not purchases, possess, or be allowed access to firearms. Living in the same home as a felon is considered to be allowing the access, even if they are kept in a safe.

Generally speaking, it's a high risk situation to be in. Law enforcement might consider being in a residence with firearms to be permitting a felon access to firearms, even if they're kept in a safe.
Can a family own a firearm if one of them is a felon?
Typically, no. While the one family member being a felon doesn't impede on the right of other family members to possess a firearm, the felon may not purchase, possess, or have access to a firearm. Even if the firearms are kept locked up in a safe which the convicted felon does not have the means to get into, their proximity is considered to be them having access to firearms.
Can a felon be in his house if his wife has a gun?

Can the wife of an ex felon own a gun?
That depends on the use of "ex-felon". If the husband was a convicted felon whose conviction was later overturned and their sentence reversed, then the husband is no longer a felon - that is an ex-felon. If the husband is a convicted felon who simply completed his sentence, that is not an ex-felon - that is a felon.In either case, the wife retains the right to own a firearm. However, doing so in the case of a felon husband may send her husband right back to prison - under federal law, a felon may not purchase, possess, or be given access to firearms. Having a firearm in the same home can be considered allowing a felon access to firearms, even if kept in a gun safe.

The question doesn't state whether the convicted felon lives there or not. If he lives there the answer is definitely NO, she cannot. The courts have ruled that even being in the same residence as the firearm places the convicted felon in "concurrent possession" of the weapon, and could trigger his arrest and charges of firearm possession.

There are some grey areas here. YOU still have a right to own a firearm. However, it must be done in a manner in which your girlfriend cannot have access to the firearm or ammunition, as a felon is prohibited from purchasing, possessing, or being allowed access to firearms or ammunition. If you're living together and there's a firearm in the residence, that can be considered allowing a felon access to firearms, even if it is in a gun safe.
Can a convicted felon that is on probation live with someone that has a gun in a gun safe?
No. If the firearm is in the same residence in which you live you are in "constructive possession" of it. It makes no difference where it is kept. PERIOD! No one is going to believe that you don't have access to it, especially if you are in a "relationship" with the owner of the gun, who just happens to live with you.
