Doesn't matter how old the felony is - it doesn't go away. Whether it happened last week or 20 years ago makes no difference as far as the law is concerned.

Depending on state law and the type of firearm, this may or may not be legal. Federal law for possession of handguns is usually allowed at age 18.

For federal firearm laws, those under 18 are refered to as juveniles and those between 18 and 21 are refered to as minors. So by federal law, possession of a firearm by a minor is usually legal. See Title 18 US Code 922.
