No. Expunged only means it's not visible to the general public - it doesn't make your felony conviction go away. You still remain a convicted felon, your felony conviction will show up on any background check done on you, and you can't own, possess, or have access to firearms under federal law.

NICS (National Instant Criminal Background Check System) checking agencies most often block the transfer of a Firearm or a permit to a person whose records indicate a felony indictment or conviction, a fugitive warrant, unlawful drug use or addiction, a mental defective adjudication or an involuntary commitment to a mental institution, illegal or non-immigrant alien status, a domestic violence restraining order, or a misdemeanor domestic violence conviction. These and other prohibitors are stated in the Gun Control Act (GCA), 18 U.S.C. 922. A NICS denial may also be based on a State law prohibition. Federal law prohibits a person convicted of a felony from possessing a firearm. Federal law prohibits a felon from purchasing a firearm. Kansas law prohibits an individual that is convicted of a personal felony from possessing a firearm.

Felons convicted only of felony "offenses pertaining to antitrust violations, unfair trade practices, restraints of trade or other similar offenses relating to the regulation of business practices" may lawfully possess a handgun under both state and federal law even without restoration of their rights. They may obtain a handgun carry permit, if otherwise qualified.18 U.S.C. 921(a)(20)(A). SO YES IT MATTERS WHAT YOUR FELONY IS!!!!!!

If you have a felony in NJ can you ever own a firearm?
It is my understanding, that any person ever convicted of a felony, cannot legally own a firearm in the United States. Updated: it depends on the type of crime, length of time since you completed your sentence (not got paroled) and the type of firearm you want. You must first get your record expunged, which they won't do violent or domestic crimes, and then you can posses most hunting weapons but still not handguns. In order to own a handgun you must receive a pardon from the governor of the state you were convicted in.
