To the moron who posted this rambling idiotic nonsense above, that is one of the stupidest posts I have ever read. You have no clue what you are talking about. You are a waste of human flesh. Please never post anything else. Feel free to go die if you can. People who post this kind of stuff should never have been born.
In answer to the question, yes you can. You need to apply for a restoration of your right to bear arms with the state board of pardons and paroles. You can also apply for a pardon if you meet the criteria listed on their site
Wait until 5 years after the completion of your sentence (including parole/probation) and petition the state.
A pardon won't get your firearms rights restored. You still remain convicted of the charge.
Consult with a lawyer familiar with firearms law.
None. Felons cannot legally own firearms unless their rights have been restored.
US Code, Title 18 states that it is unlawful for ANY convicted felon to own or possess firearms. It makes no difference what state you happen to reside in, since it is a federal law, and therefore, no way to get firearms rights restored in South Dakota.
No, felons in general cannot legally own firearms unless their rights have been restored.
If ONLY your voting rights have been restored, you can't buy a handgun. If ALL your rights were restored, or if your gun rights were restored, yes.
Contact the US Attorney for your area. They can restore civil rights. I was able to have my girlfriends rights restored very simply in Washington, but firearms rights are very well protected in the Washington State Constitution.
A good lawyer who has at least 10-20 years firearms law experience.
If you're expecting to get gun rights back after a felony conviction, don't hold your breath. In some shall-issue states, it is possible for a convicted felon to get a concealed carry permit. However, it's still a felony for them to own, possess, or be in a situation where they have access to firearms, and the CCW doesn't negate that.
Not with a firearm, unless you have had your firearms rights restored - IF Utah offers that option to you.
Possible IF the conviction was for violation of a State law. Start by hiring an attorney- you will need one.
The way I understand this question - you are asking about getting your gun rights restored so that you can get a job carrying a gun in Georgia??? If that is the case, you had better check closer with GA authorities - altho you MIGHT be able to have your felony expunged and your gun ownership rights restored, I SERIOUSLY doubt that you would ever be able to get a license to carry a gun for employment.
