Federal law plays a trump card here. Nobody who has been convicted of, or has a charge pending to, domestic violence - whether it be a misdemeanor or felony charge - may purchase, own, possess, or have access to a firearm.

Depends on the laws where you live, and which misdemeanor. Under US Federal law, there are 2 classes of misdemeanors that will disqualify you from possessing a firearm.

If you were convicted of any misdemeanor that carries a POSSIBLE sentence of more than 1 year in prison, that alone will disqualify you.
