Find a lawyer familiar with firearms law.
You will have to get a lawyer. To many variables involved for a simple yes or no answer.
--------- Not enough info to answer. What kind of "illegal gun?" Is the weapon illegal or is the person possessing it, in illegal posession of it (i.e.: convicted felon, or convicted of domestic violence)?
No. From what you describe, it would be a domestic violence incident. FEDERAL law prohibits anyone with a domestic violence conviction - whether a misdemeanor or felony - from purchasing, possessing, or being allowed access to firearms.
If that member wasn't discharged for being convicted of said felony, then by all means I would assume so. The only reason I can think of where a soldier convicted of any crime would be prohibited from handling a weapon is for Domestic Violence. If the soldier committed an act of Domestic Violence and was convicted of a lesser charge (like Battery), that doesn't count.
You need to consult with a lawyer.
It depends on what the clause says.
You should look carefully into the circumstances under which you had this Domestic Violence record supposedly "expunged" and who told you that it was expunged. It is my understanding that Domestic Violence is NOT an expungable offense.
Charge- yes. Conviction- no.
Nah, you'll probably need money nowadays! It depends on the charge.
You will need to read the Texas law to get a correct answer.
You would have to consult an attorney. We think not. Added: I agree with the first answer. Because of the nature of the crime, I believe that Domestic Violence, is one of those offenses that may be non-expungible.
Possibly. If the misdemeanor involves a crime of domestic violence, then FEDERAL law (not Texas) probits possession of a firearm- anywhere in the US.
