A bow is not classified as a firearm in Wyoming, so yes you are able to. Crossbows are a different story as they are classified as a firearm in some states. You would have to check your state laws for that classification, but as long as you do not use a firearm and follow bagging limits and all regulations, yes.
Yes. However, in NO state may a felon have possession of a firearm. That means that the felon may not be left alone with a firearm that is not under lock and key. and they may not have access to the keys, either.
no <><><> If they have direct access to firearms in the home, (such as an unlocked gun) no, they cannot.
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.
There is no set distance. Basically, a felon cannot have access to or control over a firearm.Added: For instance: You cannot live in the same home where there are firearms. Your spouse (with whom you live) may not have firearms - you cannot hang around with anyone who carries one, or be in a car where there are firearms.
Under Federal law, the felon cannot have uncontrolled access to the firearms. When not in someone's hand, they need to be under lock and key- and the felon cannot have access to the key.
Depends what country you live in and the regulations regarding firearms.
Depends on the laws where YOU live. They vary place to place.
No. Not a good idea! US Code, Title 18 stipulates that it is a federal offense for a convicted felon to ever own or "POSSESS" firearms of any type. To live in a residence where there are firearms puts the felon in what is known in the law as "constructive possession" of the firearms (i.e.- the felon would have ready access to them - which is exactly what the law is written to prevent). That is a violation of the law, and the person who owns the guns and who knowingly resides with a convicted felon could also be charged as an accessory to the offense.
No. Because all firearms are capable of firing blanks or live ammunition.
Federal law prohibits a felon from purchasing, possessing, or being allowed access to firearms. In the instance you describe, it can be a bit of a grey area. However, if law enforcement determines that the felon does have access to firearms (which they can do, even if that firearm is locked away in a safe), then both parties are subject to prosecution.
This can be a bit of a grey area... a felon may not purchase, possess, or have access to firearms. Living in the same residence as someone who owns firearms - whether they're kept in a safe or not - is often considered the same as having access.
Federal law dictates that a felon may not own, purchase, possess, or be allowed access to firearms. Having them in a safe with a felon is your not does not guarantee that access can't be obtained, and the police could very determine that, by being in the home of a firearms owner, they do indeed have access. Whether the felony was of a violent nature or not makes no difference as far as the law is concerned.The law holds true not only for felons, but any convicted of a domestic violence offense, even if only a misdemeanor.So if you've got a felon looking to shack up with you, you're better advised not to allow it.
Whether you can live with your boyfriend who is a felon would depend on the terms of his probation or parole, as felons may have restrictions on living with someone who has a criminal record. It's important to check with his parole officer or probation department to ensure you are not violating any rules.
