A convicted felon is banned from possessing a firearm under both Maine State Law, See Title 15 MRSA sec 393, and Federal Law, See Title 18 USC sec 922 (g) (1-9).
The only way that you can avoid this collateral consequence of a felony conviction in Maine is to get a Governor's pardon, but the process is difficult and they are not awarded if solely for the purpose to regain your right to possess firearms.
If you are a federally convicted felon - no. If you are a state convicted felon you
wil lhave to research the expungement law for your state.
This is going to depend on your state laws. In times past, felons never did get their voting rights back.
Suspension of the right to own firearms is a Federal matter, not a state matter.
can I in the state of Missouri with a non violent felony conviction 10 years ago get my hunting rights back
Possible. IF the felony was for violation of a state law. You will need an attorney, and petition for a pardon, with restoration of gun rights.
If you are a federally convicted felon there is no way. No mechanism exists to restore firearm rights to convicted federal felons.If you are state convicted - it depends entirely on which state you live in and/or which state convicted you. SOME states will restore limited firearm rights - others will not restore them at all.Your best course of action is contact an attorney in your state for consultation.
As far as federal law is concerned a convicted felon is a convicted felon, period. And there is no provision in federal law for such a restoration. However, some states view your situation differently and do return some LIMITED rights to you. You would have to contact your State Police to detemine if MO is such a state.
