Can you ever own a gun if you were convicted of a felony?
That depends on several factors. I have been convicted of a felony, and I currently own 3 firearms legally. I had my felony conviction set aside, all charges were dismissed (in Arizona), and ALL my rights were restored, even my right to own firearms; I have the document framed in my home office. There are levels of felonies where you will never be able to own a gun, such as violent crimes, sexual crimes, and the like. The fact is, you will need to do some research in the state laws and statutes for the state you hail from and possible even talk to a lawyer. They know a whole lot more than I ever could. Every state's law is different regarding the right to bear arms after receiving a felony conviction.
