Yes a felon can have or possess an air pellet gun of any type..
A fire arm is a device that uses an explosive gun powder or of the like the shoot out a projectile. Air guns or bb guns dont use an explosion with or fire to propel a projectile. Although a lot of companies have made air guns that are perfected for small game usage they re considered toys. No store requires anyone person to provide a Drivers license to purchase it. You can buy them online or even at Gander Mountain. However Im sure one has to be 18 or maybe even 21 to purchase it in some states.
