Can you get your gun rights back in ks if you get a felony expunged?
Getting a felony expunged doesn't make it go away - it simply limits access to that record. A felon with an expunged record is still a felon, and is still prohibited from purchasing, possessing, or being allowed access to firearms and/or ammunition. That's a federal law, and it does not vary between states.

If a felony record is sealed in PA can you still obtain a gun permit?
Check with a local lawyer to be sure.In general terms, a sealed record still is a record, just not accessible to the public. Usually, a restoration of gun rights requires that a record be expunged rather than sealed.Another View: In terms of being sealed or expunged it makes little difference. Such records, when sealed or expunged only render them unavailable to members of the general public.The courts, law enforcement, and government agencies always have access rights to these records. You would have to obtain a pardon from the governor of the state in order to qualify.
