Maryland has no special restrictions on possessing crossbows or any other type of non-firearm weapon with regards to convicted felons. Normal rules of carry and usage (such as hunting laws) apply. Also, normal federal law restricting possession of firearms by felons also applies.

∙ 14y agoNo, they may not - UNLESS - they have petitioned the state for the restoration of their firearm privileges - and IF Maryland even grants this. If the felon was convicted in FEDERAL court there is no possibility of their being restored as there is no method to do so at this time.

IF his parole/probation has been completed he is just another citizen, with the exception it shows he was a convicted felon. So if he has served his sentence, completed his parole time I do not see any reason as why he could not own a knife. He has kitchen knives at his house I assume ? ?
