It depends on where you are, and also what you are asking. If you are asking can a felon accept a gun as a gift, the answer is, no, not in the U.S. at least. In the U.S. a felon cannot own or even possess a gun, unless the felon has had his or rights restored.

Can you sell a gun to a pawn shop if you have a felony?

A convicted felon may not own, possess, or have access to firearms, period. This isn't the answer to his question. Yes, a felon can sell a gun. Federal law says you can't BUY one, it doesn't say you can't SELL one. Yes, it's a crime for you to possess it, but thats a seperate legal matter. An addtion to the answer though: If a felon takes a gun into a pawn shop to sell it, the felon has possession of the gun. A person other than the felon would have to handle the transaction for the felon.
