Not all, but some states offer a limited restoration of your firearms privileges. You would have to check with the state that convicted you and apply for that IF YOU WERE A STATE CONVICTED FELON. However, if you were a FEDERALLY convicted felon, forget it, currently there is no method in place to restore gun privileges. Congress has consistently refused to appropriate funds for this purpose.

How do you get your gun rights back in the state of Colorado?

Well, it all depends on your situation. If you've convicted of something which is a felony only at state level, and NOT a federal felony, it MIGHT be possible to have your gun rights restored. You need the services of a lawyer, and there is no guarantee. If your felony conviction was a federal felony, your chances are more or less nil. If you've been convicted of a crime of domestic violence or something drug related - whether felony or misdemeanor - that further reduces your chances of being able to have your gun rights restored. Again, you need the services of a lawyer here, who can be privy to the exact details of your situation, and can make a determination as to the feasibility of trying to have your gun rights restored.
