ADDED: (in the US) Some (few) states do allow the partial restoration of firearms rights to convicted felons WHO HAVE COMPLETED THEIR SENTENCE. HOWEVER - prevailing federal law still prohibits it. If you live in one of those few states that does restore rights, you are legal to possess ONLY WHEN INSIDE THAT STATES BORDERS. Anywhere outside the border of that particular state could get you up to 15 additional years in federal prison.
In the U.S. you cannot legally own a gun if you have a felony on your record, unless your rights have been restored.
Yes. If you have a criminal record (convicted a felony) you lose the right to vote and the right to own a gun. Therefore you can not go hunting and can not own a gun to go hunting!
The short answer is, yes, if it was a felony, you can't own a gun in any state in the U.S.
Laws vary from state to state, but in most jurisdictions you cannot legally own a gun if you have been convicted of a felony, unless your gun rights have been legally restored.
If it was a felony, no.
If he is a felon, that would mean he has been convicted of a felony. Once convicted, there is no statute of limitations.
The question answers itself. If you are a convicted felon you cannot legally own a gun. Also, if you have been convicted of domestic violence, even if it is a misdemeanor, you cannot legally own a gun. You gave that right up when the crime was committed.
Arrested? Yes. Convicted? Not if the assault was a felony, or against a domestic partner.
If CONVICTED of a felony, no. However, if convicted of a misdemeanor, yes- unless it was for a crime of domestic violence.
Yes. A pellet gun and a firearm are two totaly different things. Actually if the felony comitted was not a violent felony , the felon will be able to own a firearm after the sentence/probation is completed IF it was a first offence.
They can, BUT having a gun in the residence can be considered allowing the felon access to it, which in itself is a felony. Even in a gun safe, it might be considered allowing them access.
You need to find a lawyer who specializes in firearms law to get a correct answer.
