That may violate parol, but usually felons cannot have firearms because they have used it improperly, but it depends on the type of felony.

<><><>

Federal law- 18 USC 922, provides that a convicted felon may not possess a firearm. The type of felony or state does not matter. Unless the person has received a pardon that restores their gun rights, it is illegal for them to have access to a firearm. Violation of this carries SIGNIFICANT time in a Federal prison.
