One who has been previously convicted of a crime that carried a sentence of prison incarceration. Actually, the only way to be an ex-felon is to have been convicted, and then acquitted.

No. A "pardon" means that only his sentence has been pardoned. it does NOT mean that his crime or offense is wiped clean. He is still a convicted felon, just as if he had served the full term of his sentence in prison. As a convicted felon he may never own, or be in possession of, firearms.
