Assuming we are talking about the United States, the short answer is no, it does not affect your ability to own one. However, having it in the same house may possibly be an issue. A felon cannot own or possess firearms, but if the felon lives in a house with a firearm, but absolutely cannot access it, he technically hasn't broken any law, but, it's possible that it could be a problem if some legal issue arose. The best thing to do might be to check with your local or state district attorney.

He can own it, but it would be best if he kept it somewhere else than in his home. He is putting her in grave danger of being arrested for "possession" of a firearm. Even being in the same home or vehicle with a firearm puts the felon in what is known as "concurrent possession" of the weapon.
