It depends. The answer is too broad to answer well. If you have felonies on your record, you can only get a permit if you have had your rights restored. If it is misdemeanors, it depends on the state you are in.

What shows up on gun permit background check?
Well, this answer takes a slight clarification. The "gun permit background check" is just a basic criminal background check, basically the same as you get any other time you need a criminal background check. What shows up is your criminal record. Typically, they look for felonies and disqualifying misdemeanors. In the U.S. each state sets its own rules and conditions for gun permit approval, so what they look for depends on the state. In Tennessee, for instance, they check for felonies, misdemeanors involving domestic violence, and DUI arrests for the last 5 years.
