You're referring to a matter of federal law here - if one is convicted of a felony in any part of the US, they may not purchase, possess, nor have access to firearms, period. Doesn't matter if they're in a state other than where their conviction occurred, or even if they were to move to an unincorporated territory of the US (e.g., American Samoa, US Virgin Islands, Marianas Islands, etc.) - the law applies across the whole of the US, and state law cannot contradict that.
